Reporter Thinks She Hung Up Phone, Lets GOP Senate Candidate Know What She Really Thinks About Him
Michigan Republican Senate Nominee John James received an interesting voicemail on Monday from a reporter for the Huron Daily Tribune who thought she hung up the phone after leaving his campaign a message.
Brenda Battel called James' campaign at the start of the week and left a voicemail requesting a post-election interview and then thought she hung up the phone before saying what she thought of James, according to audio obtained by The Daily Caller.
After Battel thought she hung up the phone, she said: "Man, if he beats her… Jesus! F**king John James. That would suck! Whew, I don’t think it’s going to happen though."
In a statement to The Daily Caller, campaign manager Tori Sachs said the message reflected the media's willingness to protect politicians in power.
"The liberal media can’t stand the idea of a job creator and combat veteran coming to Washington to shake up the system," Sachs said. "This happened as we closed in within the margin of error."
A couple of hours after the story came out, the Huron Daily Tribune reportedly fired Battel, according to Daily Caller reporter Henry Rodgers.
