The Clintons are the definition of old news, the family's been in the national spotlight since Bill gave the keynote speech in 1988 and became a serious candidate for the 1992 election. After a quarter of a century in the political limelight, and with the prospect of another decade of them at the forefront of American politics, can you blame the press for wanting to talk about someone else?
I've been under the mistaken belief that the job of the press was to report the news, not entertain themselves.
That was before the need to sink Clinton arose.
