Some right-wing websites are cackling over a story that makes Hillary Clinton look bad. They say someone from her camp called The Laugh Factory — which is a comedy club in Los Angeles — demanding that they take down a YouTube video of comedians there telling Hillary jokes. The caller also wanted the names and contact info for the comedians in the video so he could take some action against them. Jamie Masada, who owns the club, refused and then the caller hung up and that was the end of it.
Is there any proof the caller was actually affiliated with Hillary's campaign? No. Would this be a dumb thing for her campaign to complain about? Yes. Has she complained about hundreds, maybe thousands of other places you can hear Hillary jokes that reach a much wider audience? No. Do those who dislike Hillary wonder if maybe this was a prank or someone unattached to Hillary's team making the call? Of course not.
