This Week in Media Bias History: Clintons Are ‘Great’ and I’m ‘Pulling’ for Hillary

On May 27, 1993, Dan Rather told Bill Clinton that he and then-CBS Evening News partner Connie Chung hoped to be as “great” as the Democratic President and First Lady Hillary Clinton. Rather gushed, “Tell Mrs. Clinton we respect her and we’re pulling for her.” Keep in mind, this was just FOUR MONTHS into Clinton's presidency. 

This Week in Liberal Media Bias History readers may be used to journalists trashing conservatives. But on May 29, 2015, CNN’s Carol Costello demanded viewers agree with liberals or be called a “hater.”
