In reply to the discussion: Press secretary says it is 'dangerous for the country' to question whether she is putting out honest [View all]SMC22307
(8,090 posts)43. No college for Steph, it's #LyingElise who went to Harvard.
Steph has quite the resume: two DUIs and two firings for plagiarism and falsifying expense reports. From her Wiki:
In 2007, Grisham was the spokeswoman for AAA Arizona,[5] but was fired within a year after being accused of cheating on expense reports.[6][7] Grisham was fired from a subsequent job at ad agency Mindspace over plagiarism charges, copying AAA material verbatim into her client's web page.[6][7]
From 2008 to 2010, Grisham worked as a spokeswoman for the Arizona Charter Schools Association.[6]
Then, Grisham served as spokeswoman for Arizona attorney general Tom Horne.[8] She witnessed the badly botched execution of Joseph Wood and caused a scandal by claiming that the two hour ordeal had been "quite peaceful".[9][10][11]
Next, Grisham worked as a spokesperson for the Arizona House of Representatives Republican caucus. She revoked the Arizona Capitol Timess press credentials hours after their reporting that the House speaker, David Gowan, had traveled at state taxpayers expense during his campaign for Congress.[12] Reporters refused to comply, and Gowan rescinded the order.[6]
In 2012, Grisham also worked for Mitt Romney's 2012 presidential campaign.[13][14]
In 2015, Grisham, as an independent contractor, worked as a press coordinator for Pope Francis's visit to Philadelphia.[15]

OP
Yes, it is dangerous for the country to weigh whether or not any particular thing she says is true.

That's for sure. And we need more media figures like Maddow, Hayes, Matthews to keep calling it out.
