ABC News: Chronicles Clinton Avoiding The News Media

For the first time in 88 days, Hillary Clinton took questions from her traveling press corps during a coffee shop stop in Minnesota Tuesday afternoon.

ABC News reports Clinton's decision to take questions comes after growing pressure from reporters who have recently been tweeting and writing stories about the lack of access to the Democratic presidential candidate.

The former Secretary of State regularly ignores reporters on the rope line and also travels in a separate charter from her press corps.

The lack of access to the Democratic presidential front-runner has led reporters to bombard Clinton with questions on the rope line as she's greeting supporters at campaign events. But -- aside from an occasional "Hi!" or "I'm feeling great!" in response -- she ignores them there, too.

During the unscheduled media availability with reporters today, Clinton responded to questions about her Super Tuesday chances, the path forward for Bernie Sanders, Donald Trump, and the whole GOP field.
