Clinton campaign kills negative story - Ben Smith - Politico.com

Isn't this the kind of thing that Democrats LOVE to throw into Republican's faces when/if they have a negative story killed?

Well if that's the case, then why appear like such a blatant hypocrite and do the same thing? 

Early this summer, Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton’s campaign for president learned that the men’s magazine GQ was working on a story the campaign was sure to hate: an account of infighting in Hillaryland.
So Clinton’s aides pulled a page from the book of Hollywood publicists and offered GQ a stark choice: Kill the piece, or lose access to planned celebrity coverboy Bill Clinton.

“I don’t really get into the inner workings of the magazine, but I can tell you that yes, we did kill a Hillary piece. We kill pieces all the time for a variety of reasons,”

The level of hypocrisy is pretty high here folks.  Here we have Hillary Clinton, who calls for politicians to be "open and honest" and yet, they want to kill a negative story.  Doesn't sound "open and honest" to you does it?
