April Ryan to Huckabee Sanders: Does administration 'think slavery is wrong?'

By Joe Concha - 10/31/17 04:54 PM EDT

CNN contributor and American Urban Radio Networks reporter April Ryan on Tuesday asked White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders if the administration believed "slavery is wrong."

The question at the end of the Tuesday briefing comes one day after White House chief of staff John Kelly stated in a Fox News interview that the Civil War happened in part because of "a failure to compromise" between the North and South.

"Does this administration think that slavery is wrong?" Ryan asked after Sanders had already left the podium.

Sanders did not respond to Ryan's question, which was among several shouted to the press secretary as she exited the James S. Brady briefing room.

Ryan took to Twitter afterward to confirm she asked the question, adding "there were crickets!" because Sanders didn't respond.

Sarah should have replied "Your WH press credentials as of this minute have been revoked". "Buh Bye".

Maybe the reporter should be asking Democrats about this since they were the ones who wanted to perpetuate it.

They know nothing of history. There was more to that war than just slavery.
They think the whole damn thing revolved around slavery???
Has she ever heard of “state rights”? Go find an old history book, beotch, and read it...oh, wait....you have to know how to read first....sorry.
The stupidity of the those in the media today is beyond amusing.

I think she meant “was wrong” not “is wrong”
One implies a current event and the other implies a past event.
If I am not mistaken, slavery is in the past thanks to the Republican party.
Words matter, as do facts.

Fake News. Sara answered April’s question at about 20 minutes.

“I think it is disgusting and absurd to suggest that anyone inside of this building would support slavery.”
