MSM protecting Hillary from scandal taint

Thomas Lifson  "A former member of then- Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's protective detail has been sentenced to a year in prison, extending the strong of scandals that have engulfed the agency since Mrs. Clinton's tenure began.  The diplomat had faced a possible 7 year term, but pleaded guilty, sparing the expense and delay of a trial and perhaps shortening his sentence.  AP reports:
....
"In order to maintain the media-generated illusion that Mrs. Clinton was an excellent SecState, as if miles flown on a private 757 were an index of effectiveness, the media are for the most part ignoring the burst of scandal uncovered in her wake. Rainsberger's sentence, for instance, merited an AP dispatch, but it does not appear to have been widely picked up, despite the fact that it closely follows news of another similar scandal."
