WikiLeaks: Clinton Camp Called Nurses' Union "Fringe" and "Not Real"
--------------------------------------------------------------------

Clinton's troubles came as Wiki Leaks made public more hacked emails
from the account of campaign chair John Podesta. In one email, campaign
manager Robby Mook urged his staff to attack National Nurses United,
which endorsed Senator Bernie Sanders for the Democratic nomination, as
"fringe" and "not a real union." NNU in fact represents 185,000 members
and is affiliated with the AFL-CIO. In response, NNU Executive Director
Rose Ann De Moro called the comment "a preview of what we can expect in
the next four years and a reminder that-from day one of the Clinton
administration-NNU and our allies will need to make our voices loudly
heard to advocate for social, economic, and political justice."
