POLITICS 04/04/2018 10:47 pm ET The network isn't handling the critique very well. By Ed Mazza 9.5k 110 Hillary Clinton called out President Donald Trump and Fox News over their obsession with her nearly a year and a half after the election.  “When he can’t think of anything to say, Trump starts chanting it and you sit there and you think, ‘Does he think I was elected?’” she said Tuesday. “I said something publicly a few months ago, Fox News is always trying to impeach me, so someone needs to tell them that it doesn’t apply to a private citizen.” Clinton was speaking at a Wing workspace panel discussion in New York, where she took on a wide range of issues, including Russian President Vladimir Putin and the tone of today’s politics. “I would hope that we can change the political culture,” she said. “Because I don’t want anybody going through that.

POLITICS 04/10/2018 05:42 pm ET The gold bug is going around. By Zach Carter It’s alarming to see so much of the Republican governing agenda inspired by Fox News hosts, but things have reached a crisis point when lawmakers start taking their cues from the commercials. In late March, Rep. Alex Mooney (R-W.Va.) introduced a bill to reinstate the gold standard. It would set the value of the U.S. dollar to “a fixed weight of gold” and require the Federal Reserve to exchange paper notes for gold upon request. The idea, which economists widely deride, would severely restrict the central bank’s ability to respond to economic disruption. No country in the world currently relies on the gold standard.

Josh Dawsey, The Washington Post Published 10:02 am, Wednesday, June 27, 2018 President Donald Trump is in advanced talks with Bill Shine, a longtime Fox News executive, to become his communications director, administration officials said Wednesday. The negotiations remain fluid, administration officials cautioned, but Shine is viewed inside the White House as the front-runner for the post, which has been vacant for several months since former communications director Hope Hicks left the administration. Several internal candidates have jockeyed for the job but have been unable to convince Trump. Shine is expected to visit the White House this week, officials said, and has met with Trump at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida.
