Vanity Fair published blasphemy against Hillary Clinton

Published



Vanity Fair made some jokes about Hillary Clinton this week that were so lukewarm they would get cut from a nursing home comedy roast. But nothing short of breathless praise is acceptable to her defenders, and so the magazine received a torrent of vitriol.

As part of a series ribbing several public figures, the outlet published a one-minute video in which staffers provided six satirical New Year’s resolutions for Clinton. It was about as funny as a middle school stand-up routine. Nevertheless, the clip was enough to earn dramatic condemnation as a “repulsive cheap shot” at “one of the most accomplished women in the history of the United States.” HuffPost has a good roundup of those reactions here.
