SALON won't quit Bill Clinton, but doing short-term contortions over his campaign-trail antics.

Yes, we all know the Bay Area webzine SALON had a past where Bill Clinton's behavior during Monicagate (essentially wasting a year of his Presidency over pigheadedness instead of taking a hit in February of 1998, putting it behind him and moving on) was stridently defended.

And Glenn Greenwald's blog post below probably is an indicator of the loud internal debates going on in the SALON offices over whether Bill's race-card shenanigans should be condemned or given a one-time pass because Hillary's election means a return to the Good Old Days when the Clintons and SALON could profit from posturing about being caught in the crosshairs of right-wing hatred.

Here's Mr. Greenwald's article:
