So the media wants Hillary? FL's 500,000 votes, 51/31 win over Obama not even reported with numbers
in US (ABC/NBC/CBS)

When Hillary hit a 20% lead and had about 500,000 votes MSNBC Stopped reporting details. US media - including AP - are refusing to give details. There was even claims on MSNBC that her lead was all early voting - until it became obvious that that was not the case. The only report that has not been revised to remove details and to dismiss the win as a "beauty contest" appears to be the BBC - and god knows if they will not be talked into following the US Corporate Media push for Obama. Makes all those DU posts about Hillary being the candidate of the corporations seem clearly wrong.
