Oh please, get your context right. Mrs. Clinton was answering a question related to the coalition effort to protect civilians in Libya. In those efforts, no Americans were harmed.
Try to keep up.
Yes - she made sure to include that qualifier in her statement.
So, basically, he pressed Hillary because he could, he went easier on Trump because Trump couldn't handle the more intense questions and he didn't want to provide the excuse for Trump to further scream media bias and excuse himself from future debates.
I didn't come away with that impression at all. Matt Lauer and Trump have tangled many times on-air, and Trump has become very good at handling the media when pressed hard. The problem for someone like Lauer is limited time, and Trump has become a slippery target who understands how to waste on-air time and limit damaging questions. If Lauer had spent time fact checking Trump he wouldn't have had the time to ask more than two questions.
Sometimes you just have to ask the question and move on and let the rest of the MSM do mop-up. This time though the MSM is all caught up in protecting Hillary and accusing Lauer of all sorts of motives. Which is hilarious. NBC probably doesn't have a bigger liberal in their lineup, it's wonderful watching libs eat one of their own darlings.

It's shameful she ignores the Americans who did die at the hands of terrorists and her lying about it to the victims' families and the American people, blaming it on an internet video.

Well she had to make that distinction to avoid talking about the Benghazi disaster and then explaining why she lied about it and covered it up.
She was basically polishing a turd. No matter how much you try, it's still a turd.

That's the context I'm concerned about.
A sociopath never takes personal responsibility for their actions, it is always not their fault. Hillary lives by "deflect and/or lie".
She is just hateful over this. What a horrible person.
Lauer had to walk the line in showing Trump's lack of knowledge on the subject while hinting at his "flip-flopping" and lies, but not pressing so hard that he would make Trump look like a complete idiot in the first national forum.

Lauer could have put Trump away multiple times and didn't. Donnie said plenty of dumb and contradictory things last night, but Lauer moved onto the next question. If it wasn't at least somewhat purposeful, than Lauer deserves the criticism.

You don't "put away" a presidential candidate. That doesn’t even make sense. Did Lauer call out Hillary for her lies? Did he "put her away"? You ask the question and move on.
What libs were hoping for was Lauer to pamper their darling Hillary while savaging Trump. It didn't happen and they are in an uproar this morning. Usually it's the GOP going after Lauer, it's entertaining watching libs go after one of their own. It's Roman Coliseum let the lions loose kind of nasty. It's great fun for those of us on the right.
