Do you think the media is already showing favoritism for Hillary Clinton as the next president?

Question

Should there be equal exposure for all candidates for president?

Answer 1

You can expect the media to have their heads up her as* for the entire campagne. Oh and you can also expect they will not ask her any difficult questions about her past as they will everyone else....How did her fingerprints get on those documents anyway???

Answer 2

The media have been showing favoritism of both Clintons since 1992. When Bush II won the first time, there was a big hue and cry about him not winning the popular vote. Well, neither did Bill Clinton, TWICE.
Now it's Hillary's turn and i'll bet there will be NO mention of the Rose law firm billing records for which she was subpoenaed and which turned up after 2 yrs in her private residence in the white house. She claimed she did not have them, so at the very least, that is obstruction of justice which is exactly why Slick Willy was disbarred.

Answer 3

In a perfect world there should be equal exposure. However, most media leans to the left, they also loved Billy, so Hillary is a natural candidate for the media. I'm hoping the Americans get reminded of all the scandals she has been involved in during the election so they know who they are voting for.

Answer 4

no, the media is not showing her any special treatment ,the time you see her getting would fall under experience of her camp.

when ever a politician gets a chance to be put on t.v. freely by being asked to do interview it is in the politicians best interest to do so.

so when a potential candidate is asked for a few sound bites it is best not to say no comment.but to simply answer in a way (like Hillary does)that will lead into another question that will have to be answered.so while it may seem like she is being favored what is actually happening is her ability to manipulate the interviewer's questions by offering a little but in particular direction.

it is absolutely brilliant on her part to maintain calm,never get flustered,and redirect the questions outcome to show a favorable light .

I personally will not vote for Mrs.Clinton based on the fact that her sidestepping on the Iraqi Issue and her finger pointing after the fact has shown her incapable of acting presidential under diverse conditions.which means that she is capable of being manipulated. we have seen enough of that during the past six years.

Answer 5

There never is. The media always focuses on the front runner or the most well known, republican or democrat. It's even true of right wing talk radio. Until recently the only dem they spoke about re 2008 was Hillary.

Answer 6

Popularity will always give exposure.
It is free publicity, and you can tell where the "FREE" media is going, because someone like Obama gets less media than a novelty.
What is more impressive?
The first white woman president who had a husband who was president, or the first black president, but not the first black person to throw their hat into the ring.
This female dog named lady must know that her uniqueness is free publicity, and means less she needs to spend on her campaign.

Answer 7

i'm hoping no longer, yet, I do have self assurance that the dem cost ticket would be Hillary and Barack, And the republican cost ticket would be Guillani and Romney. For the Dems to take the White living house the cost ticket could desire to be Edwards/Obhma. i'm Vote present day on the day of the election as thier is extremely no person to vote for.

Answer 8

Yes.
The News Media started their Agenda for Hillary to become president in 1993.
She will be the next president.
It's a done deal.
The Only thing that can stop her is if Sandy Berger squeals why he stole & destroyed classified documents to protect the Clintons from the 9/11 Commission Investigation.
Beger will NOT squeal. HIS LIFE DEPENDS ON HIM TAKING THE FALL.

Answer 9

She's getting attention right now because her husband was already President, which makes her situation unique. Like a novelty, I guess. As things heat up, I'd guess that focus will shift to the other candidates.

Answer 10

She is getting the attention because 1) she was married to a past president who got attention by having oral sex with an aide, which was sensationalized by the media; 2) she has the money to buy media air; 3) she is a woman running for presidency.

Go Hilary Go!!!!

Answer 11

Hillary is in favor of the Fairness Doctrine. If she is elected, the media stands to lose much of their freedom.

Looks like poetic justice and short-sightedness at the same time, to me.
