Lying Hillary. Lying media-----One Year of Silence on Hillary Clinton Uranium Deal

One Year of Silence on Hillary Clinton Uranium Deal - Breitbart:
"For more than a year, the mainstream media has failed to ask Hillary Clinton some very basic questions about a series of extremely troubling deals.
Why?
Last Spring, my book Clinton Cash was released and it initially set off a media maelstrom.
...The Times went on to note that the book was hardly a hysterical attack on the Clintons, but rather, “mainly in the voice of a neutral journalist” who “meticulously documents his sources, including tax records and government documents.”
Things got worse for the Clintons a few days later when two New York Times Pulitzer Prize-winning investigative reporters, Jo Becker and Mike McIntire, took two of the most explosive chapters in the book and did their own digging.
What they found confirmed what I had reported.
They ran a 3,000-word, front-page article in the paper confirming that:
–Bill and Hillary Clinton had helped a Canadian financier named Frank Giustra and a small Canadian company obtain a lucrative uranium mining concession from the dictator in Kazakhstan;

  • The same Canadian company, renamed Uranium One, bought uranium concessions in the United States;
  • The Russian government came calling and sought to buy that Canadian company for a price that would mean big profits for the Canadian investors;


  • For the Russians to buy that Canadian company, it would require the approval of the Obama administration, including Hillary’s State Department, because uranium is a strategically important commodity;
  • Nine shareholders in Uranium One just happened to provide more than $145 million in donations to the Clinton Foundation in the run-up to State Department approval;
  • Some of the donations, including those from the Chairman of Uranium One, Ian Teler, were kept secret, even though the Clintons promised to disclose all donations;
  • Hillary’s State Department approved the deal;
  • The Russian government now owns 20 percent of U.S. uranium assets.

In short, here was what you might call a radioactive scandal.
It included secret donations, the Russian government, foreign financiers, more than $145 million, and Bill and Hillary Clinton. 
And this was just two chapters of the book.
And yet, one year later, Hillary Clinton has never once been asked about this controversial uranium deal by the national media.
...It is remarkable that in the year following the release of Clinton Cash and a 3,000-word article on the front page of the New York Times confirming these facts, that no one in the media (save Mr. McElveen) has been interested in asking Hillary Clinton about this troubling uranium deal."
