<p class="mol-para-with-font">Hillary Clinton&#8217;s campaign has come up with a new way to keep reporters from hearing what she tells wealthy donors. On Thursday in Colorado, journalists straining to hear her remarks at a Colorado fundraiser found themselves unable to listen in when white noise was blasted at them through a powerful speaker. The event was held in an outdoor tent on the property of Gov. John Hickenlooper. Reporters could hear a band playing, according to CBS Denver&#8217;s Stan Bush, but the sound-camouflaging noise engulfed their ears before Hillary began talking.<img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-26426" src="https://konniemoments.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/clinton_houdini1.jpg" alt="clinton_Houdini1" width="634" height="320" /></p>

<p class="mol-para-with-font">The band was later identified as Big Head Todd and the Monsters. It&#8217;s common for candidates to speak with a microphone during outdoor campaign events, leaving open the possibility that a curious press could hear her. But not with Team Clinton on the case. &#8216;Guess @HillaryClinton campaign dsn&#8217;t want reporters to hear fundraiser speech. Turned on a static noise machine pointed at us when she spoke,&#8217; Bush tweeted.<br />
&#8216;Must have chose static noise as a privacy wall since they wanted to hold event outside in a public neighborhood,&#8217; he added in another tweet.<br />
Bush also tweeted video clips showing what the event sounded like before and after the white noise was switched on.</p>

The Big Head Todd and the Monsters song &#8216;Blue Sky&#8217; was Clinton&#8217;s unofficial campaign anthem during her failed 2008 presidential campaign, and was played as she came on stage to speak at that year&#8217;s Democratic National Convention.</strong></h6>

<p class="mol-para-with-font">The 2016 Clinton campaign has been criticized for limiting press access, including barring a journalist from fulfilling his duties as the &#8216;pool&#8217; reporter during a May 2015 campaign swing in New Hampshire. Clinton aides also used a rope to physically keep reporters away from her during a July 4 parade.</p>
