On The Bill Press Show, Media Matters' David Brock Explains Why The NY Times' Clinton Coverage Is “Uniquely Damaging”

BROCK: “The Inescapable Conclusion Is That There's An Institutionalized Bias There Against The Clintons”

From the September 11 edition of TawkrTV's The Bill Press Show:

BROCK: Our charter is conservative misinformation wherever you find it, and as far as coverage of the Clintons go, there's been a lot of misinformation in The New York Times, particularly in the last few months, where really on three occasions, Hillary Clinton was accused of, essentially, criminal conduct. All of those stories fake and wrong, having walked back by The New York Times. And, I think, if you go back and really scrutinize the coverage, as I do in this book, the inescapable conclusion is that there's an institutional bias there against the Clintons. And, I think, with The New York Times, it's the newspaper of record, it's the gold standard. And it has a liberal editorial line. So you put all that together, and it's uniquely damaging, I think, to have a Republican operatives manipulating a paper like that.
