Wolf Blitzer Calls Out Piers Morgan For Saying John King ‘Attacked’ Gingrich

Good on Wolfie.

During CNN’s election coverage of the South Carolina primary results, Wolf Blitzer “corrected” Piers Morgan for saying fellow network colleague John King “attacked” Newt Gingrich when he asked the former Speaker of the House about the “open marriage” controversy. “I want to make one correction,” Blitzer acknowledged. “I know what you meant, but your wording wasn’t precise, when you said John King attacked Newt Gingrich. He asked the question, and you of course, as anyone knows, it’s one thing to ask a question of a candidate, an important question, but it doesn’t necessarily mean you’re attacking him.”
