Hillary Clinton already offers supporters her campaign's version of a 24/7 Hillary news network at HillaryHub, and today the campaign launched its own fact-checking site.
"In the minute-to-minute media cycle we live in, we believe it is critical to correct the record in real time, regardless of the source. The site is aimed at providing a central place for the public to get reality checks on what is being said about the Clinton campaign at any given moment," spokesman Phil Singer tells reporters today.
"The Straight Scoop on Election '08 from the Hillary Clinton Campaign" is a companion to HillaryHub, and already debunks an NPR report from earlier today claiming Clinton stiffed a waitress.

As an ex-waiter, I think tips are important, its what waiters and waitresses live off of. The pay check pays your taxes and, if you are lucky, insurance. Your pay check MIGHT cover the cost of gas. So when a customer spends $159 you will remember if a tip was left. I don't believe one was left because the wait staff would have reported it by now. The real facts are that 2 waitresses are tipped $20 apiece after the Clinton campaign was caught stiffing the waitresses. Mrs. Clinton is not smart enough to handle her own bills and delegates them. What do you think her concerns are going to be about your tax dollars. Well they aren't hers, so spend as fast as and loosely as possible.

Hillary! I don't want to vote for you today, to find myself saying after the election, "If I would have known then what I know now, I wouldn't have voted for her." Are you going to force your first lady records released as soon as possable? Or will America have to go through another Bill Clinton era only to find out you are really not who you say you are?

In today's opinion on the front page world, you have to check at least three web sources before making any conclusions. Remember, her database was an enemies list in the 1970's.
