The predictable response from the media to Hillary Clinton’s growing lead over Donald Trump is to drum up a Clinton scandal in the hopes that the polls will get closer.
A new Reuters/Ipsos poll found that Clinton lead has grown to 12 points over Trump:
Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton leads Republican rival Donald Trump by 12 percentage points among likely voters, her strongest showing this month, according to a Reuters/Ipsos opinion poll released on Tuesday.
The Aug. 18-22 poll showed that 45 percent of voters supported Clinton, while 33 percent backed Trump ahead of the Nov. 8 election.
The fact that Clinton’s lead continues to increase over Trump no matter how much time the press spends on her emails was bad news for a corporate media establishment for whom a blowout presidential election will result in the loss of billions of dollars in potential profits.
If the corporate owned press was going to use their influence to help narrow Trump’s deficit in the polls, they needed a new strategy, so they followed Donald Trump’s lead and began to play up The Clinton Foundation.
The AP ran a screaming headline about many Clinton Foundation donors meeting with her while she was Secretary of State. Republicans and many in the media immediately screamed pay for play, but there is no evidence that the donors who met with Clinton received anything, so no, it wasn’t pay for play.
There is no evidence of pay for play, but the facts really have nothing to do with the motives behind why the media has hopped on the Republican talking point about The Clinton Foundation.
Donald Trump is losing badly. If the current polling continues through the first presidential debate next month, history suggests that Hillary Clinton could end up winning the White House by a large margin.
A blowout is bad news for the corporate media, so some are going to try to prop up what looks like a dying Trump campaign by giving Hillary Clinton some bad media coverage.
The motivation for these stories isn’t truth or even political bias. It’s money. The election can’t be allowed to take its natural course because a big Hillary Clinton win will result in lower profits for some media giants.
