Wolf Blitzer shows the video 40 times in 10 minutes

CNN host Wolf Blitzer covered Hillary Clinton’s alleged health issue on Sunday by playing a clip of her being helped to her motorcade nearly 40 times in 10 minutes.

After the Clinton campaign said that the Democratic nominee left a 9/11 memorial because she felt “overheated,” CNN obtained a 10-second clip of Clinton stumbling into a van as she left the event.

While Sanjay Gupta, CNN’s chief medical correspondent, opined on the causes of the incident, Blitzer continued to replay the clip over and over again.

After about 10 minutes, Blitzer paused for a commercial break.

It's !BREAKING NEWS! and that's what the big 3 do.

Andrea Mitchell interrupted a congresswoman on MSNBC to break news about Justin Bieber's arraignment.

This isn't going to go away from those channels soon.

Hasn't tweeted himself to death.
His pile of maggots knows the media will do it for him.

Kellyanne Conway is teaching him to keep his mouth shut and let the minions and the media do the dirty work.

that over-broadcasts this shit. Fuck 'em.

I wish the media would be more responsible in their coverage of Hillary Clinton vs Hitler II - but until they are, I'm not watching.

I don't think he even tries to hide it much any more. It has been a while since he has had to say that phony "the best political team on television." Seeing as how that wasn't the case back when he was saying it, and it hasn't gotten any closer to the truth now, I guess he was allowed to drop that part of their phony pretense of objectivity.

It's like an orgy. They don't report news anymore, just non stop speculations and arm chair dianosis.

not, nor did I see him during this segment. But I know how he speaks when he thinks he has some grand gossip to spew forward.

Football team, and have the chance to analyses the action as it happens. They kind of did that when the Plane hit the TWIN TOWERS as well...each slow motion image as it slams into the tower.

Some people... wow.
