ABC 15 Reporter Christopher Sign's Scoop on AG Lynch-Ex-Pres.Clinton 'Private Plane' Meeting is a Wake Up Call to the White House Press Corp

Here's to YOU, Reporter Christopher Sign.

I want to congratulate Reporter Christopher Sign for breaking one of the most remarkable political stories of this Presidential campaign season...right in front of the entire White House Press Corp.

I need to have a martini with this guy.

Sign, who is a local reporter at ABC 15 Arizona, ran circles around the national media big wigs when he literally caught former President Bill Clinton climbing on board the jet of US Attorney General Loretta Lynch...for a meeting that is just now being reported around the world.

I caught Sign on Fox News Thursday night...and this is what Bill O'Reilly reported...

"Attorney General Loretta Lynch, who will ultimately decide whether Hillary Clinton is indicted, met with Bill Clinton this week at the Phoenix airport. Local TV anchor Christopher Sign, who broke the story, joined The Factor with details. "They were on the tarmac," he reported, "in a private section. The former president waited for her and when she arrived he got on her plane, where they spoke privately for 30 minutes. The FBI instructed everyone that there would be no photos and no cell phones." Democratic strategist Mark Hannah downplayed the significance of the meeting. "A lot of people are upset with the optics, but this is a courtesy that Bill Clinton extends to members of Congress and foreign dignitaries. The American people care about the economy." The Factor countered with a suggestion, saying, "She should have talked with him for two or three minutes in full view of everyone."

My take:

As an Investigative Journalist who has exposed some of the biggest political crimes here on the Left Coast, I know how important "local beat reporters" are in our Democracy. I also recognize when government officials out and out lie to reporters.

What Christopher Sign did on breaking this situation into the daylight, was remarkable.

Sign followed his own path, and own instincts and broke a story that every member of the "White House Press Corp" should have been jumping all over because it took place right in front of them.

I applaud Mr. Sign.

Great work, my friend. I hope you win an Emmy for your effort and I hope you continue "digging deep" into what really took place on board that plane between Clinton and Lynch.

Also, I am also stunned by the so-called "political experts" who now appear daily on CNN, and FOX News, MSNBC who literally have no contact with reality and no real life experience in politics.

I'll get into who that subject later.

In the meantime, the next time you get a call from REPORTER CHRISTOPHER SIGN, do your self a favor, answer his questions directly, because he already knows what you did and who you met with in that "private meeting."

Meet Randy Economy

You may know me from my role as the Senior Advisor and Official Media Spokesman for the Recall Gavin Newsom campaign that established a worldwide blitz of interviews. I conducted more than 2,200 media interviews on behalf of “The People’s Recall” during a 10-month period from November 2020 to September 2021. The iconic magazine Mother Jones in a dramatic feature article called me “A ‘Superhero Pirate’ Radio Host, (and) Gavin Newsom’s Strangest—and Most Dangerous—Threat. Meet Randy Economy, the man behind the effort to recall California’s governor.” I appeared on more than 330 media outlets around the world in my capacity with RecallGavin2020. Fox News, CNN, MSNBC, Newsmax, NBC Nightly News, ABC News, as well as the Wall Street Journal, Washington Post, Politico, and dozens of other media outlets aired featured reports on my work on behalf of “The People’s Recall.” I am and will always consider myself to be a journalist. Sometimes I think I bleed ink. My talents as an Investigative Journalists in California earned me FIVE top awards from the prestigious Los Angeles Press Club in 2013, 2014, and 2016. I am tenacious. My reporting over the years has led to the prosecution of several elected officials in California. While working for a tiny community newspaper in Southeast Los Angeles County, I worked doggedly to expose the biggest public corruption case in Los Angeles County history when I unearthed a massive pay to play scheme inside the Assessor’s Office that led to the arrest of then Assessor John R. Noguez and four others. However, politics has been in my DNA since I was a child. I have worked on more than 300 political campaigns as a consultant and advisor since 1982 for candidates from all sides of the political spectrum including Democrats and Republicans, and even Libertarians. I am also a small business owner, serving as the President and CEO of Hot Water Studio & Production, LLC. My company works with media outlets across the state, nation, and world exposing public corruption via several new media platforms. I have also overcome personal challenges. I am legally blind with zero vision in my right eye and only 40 percent vision remaining in my left eye. I sometimes wear an eyepatch due to my failed vision. (Hence the nickname of “America’s Political Pirate.”
