Wendy Davis Blames Her Opponent for News Story Questioning Her Biography
John Sexton writes at Breitbart.com:
Wendy Davis has apparently settled on a plan divert questions about her biography raised over the weekend by the Dallas Morning News. In a response sent to one news outlet and on Twitter, Davis and her allies are blaming her opponent Greg Abbott.
For example, on Twitter Wendy Davis writes, "Two days ago, Abbott and his campaign sunk to a new low, making personal attacks on my family, my education, and my character."
But the facts of the news gathering do not appear to support Davis's efforts at damage control. As Dallas Morning News reporter Wayne Slater tweets, "Story was about Davis, not Abbott. In researching, I talked to no -- zero -- Abbott people. They saw story this morn when u did."
Here is Slater's original news report, titled "As Wendy Davis Touts Life Story in Race for Governor, Key Facts Blurred."
Sexton concludes: "Davis and her allies are trying to make her out to be the victim of an unfair personal attack, but there is no one to blame for her admittedly 'loose language' but herself. If Davis had stuck closer to the truth, there wouldn't be room to question her story."
