Wolf just got the slap down by Hillary's press sec'y by email on the air!

Did anyone see that?

He was emailed by Hillary's press sec'y and basically told to stop spreading lies about Hillary being disappointed about not speaking at the Convention!

Then they cut to a commercial right quick!

2. Cool!
So did they just show the e-mail on the screen or did he read it or what?

6. He read the email on the air.

And the email said something like "I don't know why you and CNN insist on repeating the story that Hillary is disappointed in not speaking at the Convention when she, herself, has said numerous times that SHE IS NOT disappointed."

Wolf stammers, then tries to continue the story, then gives it up and goes to break!

3. Yes but the lady repeated the "overshadowing" meme.
WTF? Kerry and Edwards are going to accept the parties nomination! That would be pretty hard to overshadow!

Why do they insist the Clinton's have the power to overshadow Kerry? First it was The Big Dog with his book and now Hillary with a speech?

I don't know who that lady is but she is giving all of the RW talking points about the Clintons.

5. Bill is speaking. I can see why they don't want Hillary to speak
but let me say this-I will not be surprised if she introduces Bill.

4. More info . . .
Wolf was on the air trying to do a story about Hillary being disappointed about not speaking at the Convention, when he (Wolf) said, "I just got an email from Hillary's press sec'y and he is asking why CNN is still saying this since Hillary has said numerous times that she is not disappointed by the Convention schedule."

Hahaha!

7. Wolf used the word "irked" when describing Hillary's...
Edited on Thu Jul-15-04 11:46 AM by Flubadubya
"feelings" about not speaking. Isn't that a cute term, irked? He then went on to say she was really making a fuss about it. Good for Hillary's press secretary. It was really a slimy, low cut that Wolf took. Turned my stomach completely. :puke:

8. Yeah, "irked" was the word he used.
I'm glad Hillary's press sec'y was ready to fire off an email and call bullshit on that.

And I admit, I'm surprised that Wolf read it on the air.

9. Thanks for that info!
Every media outlet keeps repeating the same ridiculous BS about Hilary being disappointed, blah, blah, blah.... I am so sick and tired of the lies and slants always being directed toward democrats - it never ends. We also know that includes the polls taken in NC.

Glad you caught Wolf - keep up the good work!

11. The Repubs are just throwing red meat at their base
They know that their base hates the Clintons so they keep their names in the news.
