CNN host Brian Stelter was seemingly left surprised on Sunday after a guest on “Reliable Sources” bucked his narrative on White House press secretary Jen Psaki’s alleged insult of reporter Peter Doocy. What is the background?
In January, President Joe Biden was caught on a hot mic calling Doocy, a White House correspondent for Fox News, a ” stupid son of a b**** .”
During an interview on the left-wing podcast “Pod Save America” last week, Psaki was asked whether she agrees with Biden’s insult.
“He works for a network that provides people with questions that, nothing personal to any individual including Peter Doocy, but might make anyone sound like a stupid son of a b****,” Psaki responded, adding that she appreciated how Doocy handled Biden’s insult with “grace.” What happened on CNN?
Whereas Stelter defended Psaki, Lynn Sweet, Washington bureau chief for the Chicago Sun-Times, condemned Psaki for being unprofessional.
“She got lulled into losing her discipline. This podcast is made by her friends. They go back to the Kerry campaign. They worked in the Obama White House,” Sweet said .
“She was forgetting what her real job is, which is to communicate on behalf of the president. OK? She even repeated some of the swear words that the questioner asked in the question, upping the ante,” she added
After commending Psaki for acknowledging Doocy’s “grace,” Sweet said, “One other quick thing: It’s not a negative to consult your colleagues on what question to ask.”Stelter responded to Sweet’s remarks with a puzzled look, only uttering, “Hmm, right,” before moving on. However on Sunday @LynnSweet had a “little different view,” saying Psaki “was forgetting what her real job is,” and she appeared to catch @BrianStelter off-guard in saying, “itu2019s not a negative to consult your colleagues on what question to ask.” https://mediaite.com/a/zkxnqu00a0pic.twitter.com/itpC91lYa6 — Caleb […]
