AP Defends Story About Clinton’s State Dept Meetings With Foundation Donors
The call from two leading US news organizations came as Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump and other members of his party have taken to calling for a special prosecutor to investigate what they say is corruption.

Poll results released Wednesday show Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump topping his Democratic counterpart, Hillary Clinton, in November’s general election in Arizona.
Taken as a whole, she said, that made Trump “someone who is very much peddling bigotry and prejudice and paranoia”.
“It is impossible to figure out where the Clinton Foundation ends and the State Department begins”, Trump said Tuesday night at a rally in Austin, Texas.
“It drew the conclusion and made the suggestion that my meetings with people like the late, great Elie Wiesel or Melinda Gates or the Nobel Prize victor Muhammad Yunus was somehow due to the connections with the Foundation instead of their status as highly respected global leaders”, she said.
While former President Bill Clinton said Monday he would resign from the foundation’s board and stop soliciting donations in an official capacity if his wife wins the White House, USA Today said the changes “won’t stop people from trying to buy access through the foundation”.
Despite plans announced earlier this week to reorganize the Clinton Foundation if Hillary Clinton wins the November 8 election, USA Today said the global charity must close for the Democratic candidate to avoid any appearance of unethical ties. He also defended Hillary Clinton’s contact with donors while serving as secretary of state.

The Associated Press must be partisan, too: This week it reported that more than half of the people outside government who met with Secretary of State Clinton had donated in some way to the Clinton Foundation. You know, look, Anderson, I know there’s a lot of smoke and there’s no fire. She said the foundation had provided “life-saving work”, adding that neither she nor her husband had ever drawn a salary from the charity. “That is absurd”, she said. I have nothing to say about it except that I’m really proud. She offered one of her simplest explanations yet for using a private email server while she was at the State Department. “And I want to take care of the people who work for me and give them a reasonable time to transition which they will”.
