Here's a great example of malicious and deliberate propaganda against Hillary just before the Pennsylvania primary when Obama was reeling over the Wright scandal, and Hillary was still reeling over the Tuzla sniper gate lie she told.
First, here's the video telling an HMO horror story about a young pregnant woman who died needlessly. (It's a CNN vid posted on YouTube by a Hillary basher. I link this Hillary basher vid/url to show the sheer intensity of the brutal beating she so unjustly got over this deliberately manufactured corporate media character assassination.)
And here's the Washington Post's meekish retraction.
Source: Washington Post, April 7th, 2008
This was a GIANT SCAM deliberately concocted by the corporate media. The tell-tale signs are so obvious... Although in print media they did mention names and places, but on TV were it MATTERS MOST, they bashed Hillary mercilessly for 3-4 days on this, citing an unnamed hospital and showing no interviews with the hospital(s) nor with the victim's family. Indeed, they named no hospital, the victim, nor the victim family in their reporting. NOTE: ANY ON CAMERA INTERVIEW WITH THE FAMILY'S VICTIMS WOULD HAVE MADE THE MEDIA'S WISHFUL NARRATIVE THAT HILLARY LIED ONCE AGAIN--IMPOSSIBLE. Hence, they could only proceed by NOT interviewing ANY of the victim's family members AT ALL.
When the retraction came on April 7th in the Washington Post, there was barely a mention--both within the Washington Post and certainly EVERY WHERE ELSE within the minions of mainstream corporate media. Make no mistake about it, this was the corporate media's very own Tuzla gate, one of hundreds mind you, during this blatantly anti-Clinton election season. For their parts, the GOP & the Obama campaign jumped greedily into this Hillary bash fest. I still remember a black Obama supporter citing this allegedly false tall-tale by Hillary even weeks after it was proven to be correct. Even liberal bloggers of the pro-Obama variety at the Huffington post slammed Hillary over this.
Needless to say, since they never mentioned any hospital nor the victim, nor the victim's family when they set out to once again portray Hillary as a "serial exaggerator" as they did to Gore in 2000, they coneniently never showed the victim's aunt defending Hillary either.
(Note: Even though this Washington Posts story admits Hillary essentially got the story right, it goes on to suggests she did however get some minor facts wrong. The problem with this is that she originally got her story from a police officer who knew the victims. One can blame her for not getting the factual minutia straight, but certainly not of making things up.)
I was actually watching MSNBC ("Hardball" with that idiot Chris Matthews, if I recall correctly) the night before the Washington Post posted its retraction. The author of the retraction article was on and slyly hinted the article in question will come out tomorrow, so she's not going to jump in the on the daily bash-Hillary fest on that particular night on MSNBC.
What they did to Hillary over this HMO horror story is akin to this: A friend ask to borrow $1000 from you, but later decides to only pay you back 10 bucks and calls it even! <_<
Understand that this is standard operating procedure when you want to create a hazzy state confusion over something that is crystal clear & true: Deny at full blast (on TV) that it is not true, and then print a tiny obscure little retraction saying it is true, i.e. plausible deniability. Tell a lie with wiggle room, that way if you get caught, you merely say: "What cha talkin' bout Willis, we did print a retraction!"
(BTW, remember the intense mea culpas over the alleged McCain affair and the deep soul searching by the corporate media over Dan Rather's story about Bush being AWOL from the Alabama National Guard? Those stories themselves were actually intended to help Bush and McCain by making look like victims, as wells as to help the CORPORATE media keep its fraudulent street cred as "liberal" attack dogs. Note: Bush's own commanding officer is on record saying he never showed up for duty. Note further now that anytime Bush's military record comes up, it's not about how so many credible people claim Bush never showed up for duty, but instead it's about how Dan Rather was out to get Bush. This is nothing more than bait-n-switch. )
This is but one example of what they did to my girl Hillary.

Clinton Told True Tale of Woe, Says Kin
By Anne E. Kornblut
The aunt of a young pregnant woman who died after a hospital told her she needed to pay $100 up front for care said in an interview on Monday that Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton has been telling the story accurately on the campaign trail -- following claims by a different Ohio hospital that it did not turn the patient away.
For weeks, Clinton repeated an anecdote she heard in Ohio on Feb. 28 involving a young woman who lost her baby and later died because she lacked health insurance and did not have $100 to gain access to a nearby hospital.
But over the weekend, Clinton came under fire when officials at O'Bleness Memorial Hospital, after reading about her remarks, demanded that she stop recounting it because the patient, Trina Bechtel, was admitted there and did have insurance.
That part, it turns out, is true. But so is Clinton's claim that Bechtel did not get care at another hospital that wanted a $100 pre-payment before seeing her, according to the young woman's aunt, Lisa Casto. "It's a true story," said Casto, 53...
Casto said she has been stunned by the amount of negative attention her niece's story generated, and that she was sorry it had hurt the Clinton campaign. She was, and is, she said, a supporter. "Did I vote for Hillary?" she said. "You'd better bet I did."
