(Salon) When all else fails, blame the interviewer.
Kristi Noem, the Republican governor of South Dakota, is lashing out at Margaret Brennan, host of CBSs Face the Nation, after a ruinous interview over the weekend.
....(snip)....
But Noem, who refused to address the false anecdote or otherwise discuss her "many, many" interactions with foreign leaders, insists she is a victim.
In the fake news media, there are two sets of rules, and conservative[s] are always treated differently, she said. Thats why Americans dont trust the Fake News. ...........(more)

(37,305 posts)Directing her remarks to voters of the party of responsibility. None of whom are remotely aware of the concept.
She agreed to the interview planning to whine afterward regardless of the interviews outcome. Thats what you do when you have no integrity.

(54,367 posts)episode in her book. Can't be a worse example of a pol displaying poor judgement, except maybe RFK jr. disclosing that he has worm in his brain that ate part of it.
Of course trumps many foibles and lies top any pols missteps in our whole history.
Noem lying about meeting with heads of state is a foolish, easily rebutted lie.

(2,198 posts)Then why did you agree to speak with them?
Maybe what's really going on is that old screed about arseholes:
If you run into an arsehole, maybe that person was an arsehole (or having an arsehole moment). If everyone you run into is an arsehole, then you're the arsehole.
Same thing with 'fake news' clams:
If you run into a media outlet that does a poor job, maybe that's a fake news outlet. If every media outlet you deal with is fake news, maybe you're the one who's fake.
