Pimp my Clintons
MSNBC became relevant for a little while after one of its pundits on Tucker Carlson’s show implied that Hillary Clinton was ”pimping out” her daughter Chelsea on behalf of her campaign. (cue outrage from liberal uber-blog Huffington Post here). Clinton’s campaign called these comments ”beneath contempt,” and threatened to pull out of any future debates on the channel because of them.
While there might have been some overreaction to these comments (as there inevitably will be in the news-media, especially of the 24-hour variety), it does seem somewhat unfair, and that people wouldn’t talk this way about any other candidate’s children. Cut Hillary some slack?
In a related story, Tucker Carlson is a jerk in a bow tie.
