Lester Holt & bias

As I write this it’s before the results of the Iowa caucuses have been determined.
Still there were a few developments right before the event, I found interesting.
If you ever doubted there was liberal bias in the media, Lester Holt has probably erased all that.
Last week he conducted a sit down interview with Mrs. Clinton. One of his questions concerned a town hall meeting earlier in the week.
In that meeting a young guy told Mrs. Clinton he was for Bernie Sanders because he found Mrs. Clinton to be dishonest.
Holt said the question made him “wince” and then asked Mrs. Clinton if it had “hurt her feelings.”
You’ve got to be kidding me.
What’s a little alarming is Holt is the lead anchor for NBC. He’s getting paid millions of dollars a year.
Shouldn’t he be up on the news a bit more?
Mrs. Clinton’s veracity has been called into question for more than 20 years. It probably started when she turned $1,000 into $100,000 in some cattle futures investment scheme.
Can you imagine Holt ever asking Ted Cruz if he got his feelings hurt over some of Donald Trump’s accusations?
It should be guys like Holt asking Mrs. Clinton if she’s honest and asking her why she lied about the video in the Benghazi embassy attack?
In other campaign news, I admire Bernie Sanders’ honesty, but a tax increase? Seriously?
The people who have completely botched and misspent so much of the money that has been taken from us, want more?
Federal lawmakers have proven to be very poor stewards of the money entrusted to them. They deserve no more.
It’s not likely there will be a tax increase.
