The Republican party disapproves of planned Hillary Clinton biographical series by US TV networks, threatens to cut them out of the debates

It seems kind of weird that they'd threaten to cancel something over a personal bio program. Though I really don't like anything Hillary Clinton, or Clinton related. They've never been good business in my eyes.

The Republican party is within its rights to chose whom it will to televise their debates. There is no hint of illegal threat or extortion here.

They are within their rights to do so, but I thought they were aiming to be seen as more inclusive now? :scratch:

I don't think the Republican party hyperventilating about Hillary Clinton over three years before the next election is quite the same message...

I heard NBC was going to air a documentary about Hilary Clinton, but i also heard this morning that that was under the Entertainment Division, and not by NBC news... still NBC... and i watch NBC and msnbc

i didn't even know CNN was also going to air a documentary similar to what NBC was going to air

I can't wait to hear how The Daily Show and/or Colbert Report will make comedic jokes on the media about it.

Good for the Republicans. They need to start standing up for themselves.

And how many everyday Republicans are going to take this boycott seriously? I don't think NBC or anyone else has much to worry about.
