CNN and NBC have both announced programming promoting former Secretary Hillary Clinton ahead of her likely presidential campaign in 2016. These are clearly the major networks’ thinly-veiled attempt at putting a thumb on the scales for the next presidential election. I find CNN’s and NBC’s actions disturbing and disappointing. Their credibility as a supposedly unbiased news network will most certainly be jeopardized by the decision to show political favoritism and produce an extended commercial for Secretary Clinton’s impending campaign. This is wrong, and the Republican National Committee will not stand for it. If both networks continue to move forward with these projects, I am prepared to seek a binding vote stating that the RNC will neither partner with these networks in 2016 primary debates nor sanction primary debates they sponsor. Reince Priebus Chairman, Republican National Committee
