The mainstream media — the so-called “legacy press” — has largely allowed the Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton orbit around the Jeffrey Epstein scandal with minimal sustained scrutiny. While Epstein’s connections to many high-profile individuals were widely reported, coverage of the Clintons’ historical ties has often been muted or treated as a peripheral footnote rather than a subject of rigorous investigative follow-up. Critics argue that the media has repeatedly accepted the Clintons’ declarations of limited knowledge or involvement without pushing deeply into overlapping timelines, travel logs, or guest lists of Epstein’s circle — even though flight logs and other documents show Clinton Sr.’s travel on Epstein’s plane and social interaction with Epstein’s network.


At the same time, the legacy outlets have given disproportionate attention to other public figures in the Epstein saga, fueling the perception that the Clintons receive a pass. When journalists do report on Clinton-Epstein links, the framing often emphasizes the Clinton office’s denials and wishes to move on rather than pressing for transparency or access to documents. Meanwhile the narrative stays centered on sensational aspects of Epstein’s life — his island, jets, “client list” theories — rather than systematic media investigations into elite protection networks. The net effect is that many readers see the Clintons’ ties treated as one line in a much larger story, not as a major thread demanding scrutiny, which contributes to perceptions of selective accountability and media bias.
