It would be naive at best to assume that the mainstream media is fair when dealing with Republicans and Democrats. I am sure that the fact that NBC<\/a> and CNN<\/a> are planning film projects very favorable to Hillary Clinton as she seeks to be the Democrat<\/a> candidate for President in 2016 is purely coincidence.<\/p>\n

Normally the Republican establishment would stand back and watch this and do nothing, but evidently there is currently some leadership and some backbone in the Republican party. Yesterday Politico<\/a> reported that the Republican National Committee Chairman<\/a>,\u00a0Reince Priebus<\/a>, has stated that if NBC and CNN go ahead with their plans for a Hillary Clinton movie, he will deny them access to the Republican debates<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The article at Politico reports:<\/p>\n

In open letters to the leadership of NBC Universal and CNN International, Priebus expressed his “deep disappointment” over those networks’ decisions to produce films “promoting former Secretary Hillary Clinton ahead of her likely candidacy for the Democratic nomination for president in 2016.”<\/strong><\/p>\n

Should the networks fail to pull those films by the RNC’s Summer meeting on August 14, Priebus writes, he will “seek a binding vote of the RNC stating that the committee will neither partner with you in 2016 primary debates nor sanction primary debates which you sponsor.”<\/strong><\/p>\n

“As an American company you have every right to air programming of your choice. But as American citizens, certainly you recognize why many are astounded by your actions, which appear to be a major network’s thinly-veiled attempt at putting a thumb on the scales of the 2016 election<\/a>,”\u00a0Priebus wrote in his letters to NBC chairman Robert Greenblatt<\/a> and CNN president Jeff Zucker<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Diane Lane<\/a> will star as Hillary Clinton in the NBC miniseries.<\/p>\n
