After learning from the mainstream media during the last eight years of the Obama presidency that seemingly benign phrases and words like Chicago, that one and golf are now deemed racist, viewers are getting a similar lesson when it comes to Clinton coverage.

CNN host Christiane Amanpour suggested on air Monday that the heavy coverage of the Democratic nominee's health is simply sexist.

When I read this I couldn't help but think this is one dumb reporter. She couldn't see she was being extremely sexist in her remarks by calling others sexist. Liberalism is the worst kind of mental derangement syndrome. With the clinton's; half the time the crime isn't near as bad as the coverup. Other times, yes, the crime is that bad.

Go back to Iran, you globe-trotting fancy-pants, and they’ll show you what sexism really is.

The only thing Clinton has going for her is the woman card. Example #23.



To: Boomer

Just like the 2000 doctors who took out a full-page ad demanding John McCain’s health records- they were sexist too.

CNN host Christiane Amanpour suggested ...coverage of the Democratic nominee's health is simply sexist. this is 3rd different Pravda MSM source today saying this - so its clear, this is a coordinated story line being pushed by Clinton campaign. Its not random stupidity from barking leftist. Wikileaks showed us that the DNC would direct media coverage and talking points at MSNCB, CNN and others. It certainly hasn't stopped.



To: Boomer

Liberals are certifiably insane..they had NO problem going after John McCain in 2008 suggesting that his skin cancer could return and that he is too old to run..they said the same thing about Ronald Reagan, too old to be President..yet here you have a woman who can’t even walk two steps before falling over like a freakin ironing board and they call that sexist LOL cant make this stuff up



To: Boomer

Woman are generally healthier than men, and live longer. This is not sexist. The reaction is to what is being seen, in conjunction with the stealth that surrounds Hillary.



To: Boomer

Imagine the 24/7 rat media hysterics if it were Trump having the coughing and collapsing issues. Wear it, Libs.



To: Boomer

i look at the libtard pravda media like a CHEERLEADER / PROPAGANDIST who can make the most preposterous statements to defend and support the BEAST despite looking like a complete fogging icehole or the southbound end of a northbound horse with its tail up high in the air spewing horse manure.......



To: Sarah Barracuda

The left’s blanet sexism was on horrid display going after Sarah Palin. And still is by the way.



To: Boomer

Christiane’s husband should beat her more often.



To: Boomer

I’d like to see medical proof that Hillary! actually IS a woman, before I make up my mind on this.



To: Opinionated Blowhard

I heard someone paraphrase to the effect of, can’t a girl take a sick day?? Hillary’s been working so hard yadda yadda yadda, and now the whole world focuses on her taking a sick day, goes that line of thinking. And this ties in with the Clinton lap dogs using the words “power through” as Hillary works so hard through health problems



To: Boomer

The tactic, with both Obama and Clinton, is to deflect and redirect.



Reverend Wright videos expose Obama's close relationship with a radical anti-American? Redirect to talking about America's racism.



Clinton collapses and has to be dragged into a van? Talk about how she is facing ageist and sexist criticism that a man wouldn't face.



To: Boomer

Fine, I'm sexist. What are you going to do about it, Christiane? Call me deplorable?

Yeah, because if Trump collapsed like a wooden robot getting into his personal ambulance nobody would say a word.

To: Boomer

Then she just made the reason for women never to be able to run. If she can not be held to the same standards and scrutiny as Trump or any other male running but then I think the press has done the same thing with minorities with Obama.



To: Boomer

It's no more sexist than when the Clintons questioned the health of Democrat candidate Paul Tsongas. In the 1992 Democrat primary, former Massachusetts Senator Paul Tsongas was the early front-runner; Bill Clinton was struggling with infidelity questions. Tsongas had retired from the Senate in 1984 because he was diagnosed with non-Hodgkins lymphoma (John Kerry took his seat). Tsongas underwent a bone marrow transplant to treat the disease in 1986 and received a clean bill of health from doctors in 1991. The whisper campaign began against Tsongas that his health was still in doubt, and Tsongas' popularity began to wane as Clinton's begun to surge. Tsongas eventually dropped out of the race. As it turned out, Tsongas died 1997 from a return of the cancer, which would have been in the seventh year of his Presidency. People were right to question his health. And people are right to question Clinton's health now. -PJ

Because leftist media loons dont consider Conservatives and especially Conservative women to be real human beings..in their mind we dont exist and should never exist



To: Boomer

What heavy coverage???? I’ve seen social media light up, but I haven’t seen what I would consider heavy coverage out of the mainstream media.
