Breitbart reporter demands apology from Trump campaign, as video backs up accusation

Breitbart reporter demands apology from Trump campaign, as video backs up accusation

Breitbart News reporter Michelle Fields is demanding the apology she thought she would receive two days ago, as new video appears to support her charge that Donald Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski forcefully grabbed her by the arm — leaving bruises — after a press conference on Tuesday night.

In an interview with Fox News Channel's Megyn Kelly, Fields said the campaign privately promised an apology following the incident, before doing an about-face and publicly denying that anything had happened, according to a transcript provided ahead of Friday's edition of "The Kelly File." Fields has filed a criminal complaint against Lewandowski.

Oh, there's video? And it's our guy who we just swore up and down never touched you? Oh, well. That's very different. Uh, hmmm . . . sorry? You're not going to get all shirty about this, are you? Probably shouldn't have said "Screw you." Boy, you really hold a grudge, don't you? We said we're sorry, kind of. Geez, just let it go, cancha? You're so sensitive! Girl reporters, amirite?

How sad, Trump is the shark to their chum. Sad they will work for the same paymasters. Yes little fishy, Trump lied to you - that is ALL your political party knows how to do...oh wait, THAT and rough up people via mob.
