        Out of curiosity, was it #Russia or #NBC who released the Hollywood Access tapes merely DAYS before the election? Isn't that interference? 😑

        It's okay when our own media tries to influence an election. Or the IRS. No...that's just fine and dandy.

        That @washingtonpost newsroom watches Access Hollywood (or cares about its ratings) is indicative of how low journalism has sunk #FakeNews
