Media Matters Supports Reince Priebus: Is that the 3rd Sign of the Apocalypse?

Well it seems that Reince Priebus (what a goofy name) might be getting support from a very unlikely source.

"You ought not be doing feature films or documentaries and miniseries about what we know to be a very likely candidate," Priebus said. "CNN and NBC can do what they want to do. That's their right. But it's also my right, Erin, as chairman of the party, to say if you go forward with this then I'm going to choose not to include you in the debate process and the moderating of our primary debates in our party. I think this is a reasonable thing for me to be doing."

Even conservative media watchdog group Media Matters agreed with GOP, possibly for the first time in recorded history. On Tuesday, founder David Brock sent letters to CNN and NBC urging them to cancel their Clinton plans.

Yeah having CNN and NBC showing some 15-part mini-series about Hillary out of the clear-blue sky right before she runs of President is so very non-partisan. They should have just come out and endorsed her like a local newspaper endorses a city councilman. CNN and NBC supports Hillary Clinton for President and just leave it there. 

I love CNN rolling this out as a defense as well.

CNN has said that its news division has nothing to do with the CNN Films banner the documentary is being produced under.

Oh of course not. They are so separate that CNN will be showing the "The Hillary Clinton Story: Time Has Come for Greatness" or whatever CNN will call its documentary right on CNN. I wonder if it will be hosted by Wolf Blitzer or maybe simply Hillary herself will step in and do the work. Maybe they will just have her Vice Presidential candidate do the honors and save some steps.
