Following Hillary Clinton’s decision to take questions from the press for the first time in over three weeks, the “big three” of ABC, CBS, and NBC all covered the story on their Tuesday evening newscasts and, once again, were all too happy to spin for the Democratic presidential candidate.

While all three networks mentioned a federal judge’s ruling that her e-mails should be released more quickly than currently projected, they ignored news that she had a second private e-mail address and that Clinton ally Richard Blumenthal advised her on Libya despite the fact that he was banned from working at the State Department and working for the Clinton Foundation.
