Yahoo has consistently fielded more Russians are coming/Anti Putin articles than any other site. It is a regimen for Yahoo.

The comment sections are far out hilarious.

But there was a problem with the thirtieth. Someone mentioned that Saturday, April 30, was the night of the annual White House Correspondents' Association dinner - where the president was expected to speak. How would it look, they asked, if the president was at a black-tie dinner joking around with a bunch of reporters in the beautiful Hilton Hotel ballroom in Washington, D.C., while a group of Americans were dying on a failed mission in Pakistan? Secretary of State Hillary Clinton shot down that concern with a well-placed response. "Fuck the White House Correspondents' dinner," she said. "Heaven help us if we ever make an important operational decision like this based on some political event."
Can you imagine any Republican saying a thing like that?

Good for her. I'm feeling more than a little schadenfreude at the press corps butthurt weasel words about access to this candidate. Eighteen months from the election and these soap sellers are whining up a storm.

She hasn't been very accessible to the press but she has put herself out there to interact with the everyday citizen.

Hillary Clinton took a condescending tone when she asked a supporter asking for a photo to go to the end of the line at a campaign event with residents of Hampton, New Hampshire.
So what is wrong with her response? I am assuming she is under Secret Service protection (not as a candidate) and has strict guidelines for photo-ops. Or is this a gotcha!

For sure! One of her handlers should have taken care of it.
