Actually, it’s ‘Clinton’, NY
Posted by Paul on March 25, 2008
A reader rightly made a correction to an earlier post.
In regards to the Hillary Clinton pastor problem post on AdvanceAmerica, reports WKTV-Utica, NY:
Procanick was pastor at Resurrection Assembly of God Church in Clinton before stepping down in Spring of 2007.
As it turns out, the ‘Clinton’ lead in the story had nothing to do with “the Clintons” but was a reference to the town of ‘Clinton’, NY.
To be fair, I would like to mention two points:
- The initial WKTV article was not specific enough in its elaboration that this was in fact, a city.
- My point in bringing up the issue has been one I’ve consistently ranted against and addressed: media sensationalization of the ‘horse-race’ aspect of this presidential contest. The post also included an excerpt from the Nation that discussed the shady “Clinton family.” While I am not a Hillary supporter, I’m still willing to defend her against ridiculous claims.
