April Ryan Blames WH Press Secretary For Her Death Threats
2018-08-24
[HotAir] I’d laugh if this little nugget of information weren’t so amazingly hypocritical. It takes quite a bit of cajones for a White House Press Corps reporter to blame President Trump’s Press Secretary Sarah Sanders Huckabee for her own personal security expenses. Yet, that is exactly what White House correspondent April Ryan did in a recent interview. I’ll note the irony here, too, of a reporter becoming the story, though this is more and more common now.

First, let me remind you of some of April Ryan’s past behavior while she carries out her duties as a reporter for American Urban Radio Networks and as a contributor for CNN. She famously yelled a question to President Trump ‐ "Are you a racist?" after he made the sh**hole countries remark and she once asked Sanders if the president has thought about stepping down. And of course, let us not forget the #piegate story I wrote about last year during the holidays. Ryan actually instigated a personal battle with Sanders over pie. How’s that for some serious journalism? (Also, never question a southern woman’s baking skills. It turns out badly for you.)

#2  Quoting April Ryan:

Do I have a bodyguard? Yes, I do.

I hope it's an unarmed female bodyguard, because guns are bad, mmmkay? And a male guard is toxically masculine and patriarchal.

I am a member of the press corps, one of the deans of the press corps now

Are you actually a "dean" if you have to call yourself one? Isn't that like a dork going on about how cool they are?
