“The damage is done to Hillary Clinton,” Trump campaign manager Kellyanne Conway told MSNBC’s Brian Williams on Friday.
In a fleeting moment of delusional naïveté, one might have thought that Conway was expressing her dismay at the pernicious effect reckless journalism can have on a campaign — sure, she wants to defeat Clinton, but she wants to do so fair and square.
But Conway hastened to explain that the “damage” here was very good damage, because the inaccurate story helped the American people understand the truth about Hillary Clinton.
Kellyanne Conway argues that inaccurate journalism is good journalism — so long as it harms Clinton.
