Meet the Press
In case you haven’t already seen it, here’s the viral video of moment. It’s a broadcast on CNN of one of Bush’s speeches in which anchor Kyra Phillips leaves her wireless microphone turned on as she chats with a coworker in the bathroom. Among other things, she calls her sister-in-law a “control freak” as she drowns out the President with her washroom gossip (I’d like to see how that goes over at the next family reunion!)
If this seems like it might be an innocent mistake from an otherwise-professional journalist, bear in mind that this is the same woman who compared the 2006 labor protests in France (in which no one died) with the T1ananmen Square pr0tests in China (in which hundreds died). That’s about all you need to know about this woman.
Kyra was also the only journalist to hold Nancy Pelosi and other members of Congress partially responsible for not approving funding for New Orleans in the past.
