The headline (not your fault) was very misleading. Walker didn’t back the ex-mayor’s statement. He remained non-committal. He just said he didn’t know, he never asked the president and they should ask Obama what he thinks.
It was a good answer but it wasn’t what the headline wants you to think. They want to make people think that Walker agreed with Guiliani. Maybe he does who knows.
I read at one time that many people never read an entire article. There are those, and I know a few, who are headline scanners. The media knows it too and they write their headlines accordingly. If you actually then read the article they don’t match. Very frustrating but I think for the most part it works because there are those that just do not read an entire article for some reason.
The media wasting our time with these stupid questions about Obama bashing, college degrees, evolution. Nothing that is really relevant to us as voters. I think it is designed to label different candidates as racist, haters, homophobic, ignorant etc. hoping voters will automatically dismiss them out of hand before actually listening to what a candidate has to say about policies that really will matter once they are POTUS.
I think it was a truthful answer.
And that makes it a good answer.
The media will always do this.
