NY Times’ Maureen Dowd says Biden campaign aide pressed her to scrub ‘goodest’ gaffe

New York Times op-ed columnist Maureen Dowd said a campaign aide working to help re-elect President Joe Biden asked her to scrub a verbal gaffe from one of his recent media appearances.

In her column in the op-ed section of Sunday’s Times, Dowd wrote that TJ Ducklo, a spokesperson for the Biden campaign, emailed her after she published a commentary on Saturday that included reference to the word “goodest.”

Biden appeared to utter the non-word during his interview on Friday with ABC News anchor George Stephanopoulos, but the network later revised the transcript to reflect that the president actually said “good as.”

Disney-owned ABC News altered the initial transcript at the behest of the White House, according to The New York Times. The Gray Lady also revised the Biden quote “to conform with the updated ABC transcript.”

They lied and mocked palin for saying ‘i can see russia’ but it was only ever said by someone on SNL mocking her. So they blast republicans for things they never even said, but Dems have every mistake covered up.

What an evil institution the Journo-lister media is. Sick stuff. Evil.

People on both sides of the aisle are really beginning to dislike Biden and really despise the insufferable people in this clown show of a WH.
