— Dana Loesch (@DLoesch) May 28, 2015Typical. @joshtpm lies about hearing my interview, phones in a story centered around a fake quote, then says everyone else is “histrionic."
— Dana Loesch (@DLoesch) May 28, 2015TheBlaze TV’s Dana Loesch hit back at Politico and other news outlets on Wednesday after they ran misleading headlines about her interview with Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker on Wednesday.
Politico’s initial headline read: “Scott Walker on mandatory ultrasounds: ‘It’s just a cool thing out there.’” Sensing the impending controversy, several other news websites ran similar headlines.
The only problem is the quote was seemingly taken out of context in a big way. Here’s exactly what Walker told Loesch on Tuesday about ultrasounds:
“Most people I talk to, whether they’re pro-life or not, I find people all the time who’ll get out their iPhone and show me a picture of their grandkids’ ultrasound and how excited they are, so that’s a lovely thing. I think about my sons are 19 and 20, you know we still have their first ultrasound picture. It’s just a cool thing out there.”
