She is appearing on lots and lots of programs. She is not being slighted in this way.

No need to play the victim on her behalf.

But none of that is germane to whether HRC is getting signicant TV exposure.

It's the matter of her being criticized for said exposure

Boosts for whatever shows she appears on. It's gotta be upsetting these assholes who hate her to see that.

Attention to the coverage at all. Why comment of that's the case? Why accuse her of "playing the victim"?
Sounds like a RW talking point/ baseless smear to me.

But she's gotten a tremendous amount of publicity about her new book. She's been on talk shows, she even had an hour with Rachel Maddow in what ended up being the highest rated non-sporting event in a long time. She's actually getting what she should have gotten during the election - positive coverage.

Bannon, as sleazy as he is, has direct ties to the Trump administration and helped shape a lot of what's going on. People are interested in what he has to say because he probably more than anyone else, knows what's going on in the Oval Office.

And news networks have been destroying the Emmy's for allowing Spicer on. Chris Cilizza wrote an absolutely scathing column about it.
