Stepping Out From Hillary Clinton’s Onscreen Shadow


Female presidential candidates on TV have long been portrayed in Hillary Clinton's image, but a new show called "The Girls on the Bus" is breaking away from that. The show, based on the campaign-trail memoir "Chasing Hillary," features a governor named Caroline Bennett as the front-runner, distinct from Clinton. This departure from the shadow of Clinton's persona reflects a shift in how television portrays female presidential candidates. Despite this, the influence of Clinton's image still lingers in the portrayal of fictionalized Hillarys in TV shows.
