Bill Clinton blames 'mainstream media' coverage of emails for 2016 Hillary Clinton loss

Former President Clinton blamed the “mainstream media” coverage of Hillary Clinton’s email controversy for her 2016 presidential loss.

During an interview with MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough on “Morning Joe” that aired Monday, the former president discussed an excerpt from his recent book, “Citizen,” published in November.

In the book, he detailed the rage he felt after his wife, the former Secretary of State, lost to President-elect Trump in the 2016 election, and how he believes the media blew the email scandal out of proportion.

“It’s easier for us to know what happened in 2016 in some ways than it is what happened in 2024 … because in 2016, you had two highly unusual things,” former President Clinton began, in a clip highlighted by Mediaite.
