[See NewsBusters for more.] Hillary Clinton has "plenty of reasons to mistrust the press," that according to a Washington Post columnist. E.J.Dionne appeared on Monday's Last Word to discuss the style of the Democrat's presidential campaign. Dionne equivocated, describing Clinton as cautious. He added, "I think there are moments of joy that I have seen. I saw it in the announcement she made in New York, particularly, when she talked about her family." He then lectured, "I think she is too cautious with the press to say the least. And, while she got plenty of reason to mistrust the press, that does not do you much good." Given the extremely friendly coverage to both Clinton and Obama, it's hard to imagine what those reasons are.
