Media bashes Trump while covering for Hillary

The liberal mainstream media shows its colors again. Recently, ABC Nightly News announced the release of Hillary Clinton's tax return, showing the numbers, including about $1 million in charitable donations.

They then jumped right into Donald Trump.

What they failed to mention was that $1 million was donated right back to herself, via the Clinton Foundation.

Did they make the decision that the $1 million wasn't newsworthy?

Then The Sun News posted an article from The Associated Press, with the title, “Pressuring Trump, Clinton releases 2015 tax returns.” Within that fluff article, there was one sentence stating “they gave more than $1 million to charity.”

Once again, not one word that it went to their own charity!

Is this not important? Guess not when you have an agenda to follow.
