"Brock had a bodyguard, Haydn Price-Morris, carry a loaded gun in the District of Columbia. The Daily Caller reported that “multiple firearms used to protect the Media Matters founder were purchased with Brock’s blessing — and apparently with the group’s money.” This is astonishing under any circumstances, but particularly because Brock is so closely aligned with Hillary Clinton, who is strongly in favor of strict gun control laws. Apparently those stricter rules on guns don’t apply to her loyal partisans. Brock should come clean on his role in this story, release all his gun purchase records and reveal whether Media Matters funds were used to purchase firearms. They could start by getting the real story from the bodyguard involved."
Why No Press Interest In the Troubling Conduct Of Hillary’s Top Attack Dog?
Mark Paoletta 9-13-16
With the race for the White House entering the home stretch, Hillary
Clinton and her surrogates have been intensifying their attacks on
Donald Trump and his campaign staff. So have many members of the news
media, who are happy to write smear pieces about Trump’s advisors.
Witness Ruth Marcus branding
Trump deputy campaign manager David Bossie “the Captain Ahab of Clinton
haters.” Marcus might think it’s a clever literary reference to compare
Bossie to Herman Melville’s fictional whale hunter, who is obsessed
with killing Moby Dick to the point of fanaticism. But Clinton’s
cheerleaders in the media seem perfectly willing to excuse fanaticism
and obsession in their own ranks.
They have remained remarkably silent about one of the most powerful members of Hillary’s own team: David Brock, whose unscrupulous tactics and shadowy empire suggest another literary comparison. Bearing in mind the tyrannical ruler of a far-flung trading post in Joseph Conrad’s Heart of Darkness, one might call Brock the Mr. Kurtz of conservative haters.
Brock was once a conservative investigative reporter and Clinton critic, but perhaps, like Kurtz, he spent too much time in the Left’s “Heart of Darkness” and got corrupted. He rebranded himself as a prominent Democratic operative and founded the spin-machine Media Matters as well as, according to The Washington Post, “four other organizations that he says were ‘built to counter the right-wing machine.’” By his own recent admission, he doesn’t even have any conservative friends.
