Heck, why not look at the last 23.5 years or the last 31.3 years, whatever fits your statistical needs?  Ironic that in the same RG edition that this editorial appears in is an AP story about Chicago having the highest monthly murder rate in July since the mid-1990's.  Fact checkers - always unbiased, of course.
(Not to mention that Hillary did have a friendly little party with a small group of minority reporters so that obviously means that she hasn't avoided any unstructured press meetings in the last year. Obviously that means Trump was lying about that also.)
