ON THE RECORD: May 11, 2014: Media Matters is in Hillary Clinton defense mode (still), as they attempt to explain why the Daily Beast article written by Josh Rogin ("Hillary: Enough Benghazi Investigations") was just a smear job by the Daily Beast (" How A Daily Beast Article Became A Clinton Smear " by Hannah Groch-Begley).
Media Matters, as is often the case, knows there are fact and then there are Media Matters' "facts."
From other sources: CNN ("Gingrich: Hillary Clinton's Boko Haram problem"), CBS (" Hillary Clinton's handling of Boko Haram: Are critics justified?"---they give and adamant "they don't know" answer), Fox News ("Laura Ingraham: Hillary Clinton and Nigeria "), Christian Science Monitor ("Why Hillary Clinton's State Dept. didn't list Boko Haram as a terrorist group (+video) "), Antiwar.com (" Hillary Clinton, Boko Haram, and the Meaningless Politics of the US Terrorist List"), Boston Herald ("Cohen: Hillary Clinton failed Nigerian girls "), Atlanta Black Star ("Did Hillary Clinton Hurt the Fight Against Boko Haram by Refusing to Call Them ..." --who claim even though she didn't it might not have mattered-nothing definitive), Politicus USA ("Fear Of Hillary Clinton Leads Conservatives To Illogically Blame Her For Boko ..." who say it didnt matter because the recent abductions didnt happen on Clintons watch), Daily Mail ("Hillary Clinton's State Department refused over and over to brand girl-kidnap "), News Busters reports that " 2012: HuffPo Writer Urged Hillary to Designate Boko Haram as Terrorist ...", Dallas Morning News (" Boko Haram Not Terrorists, Says Hillary Clinton "), New York Times (" Schoolgirl Abductions Put Scrutiny on US Terrorism Strategy")..and there are dozens of others....
Media Matters also continues to spin Benghazi as an anti-Clinton crusade ("Anti-Clinton Groups Profit From Right-Wing Media's Benghazi Crusade") . It shouldnt matter to Hillary because "What difference at this point does it really make?" Comments can be made here: Media Matters Goes Into Hillary Defense Mode
