Josh Earnest Can't Explain Key Omission From White House Transcript

By Debra Heine, PJ Media

White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest on Tuesday could not explain the omission of a problematic line from the transcript of a recent briefing that involved a question from Fox News about Iran. Instead, Earnest dismissed the notion that any sleight of hand took place and launched an attack on Republicans, whom he said were "wrong" about the Iran deal. Earnest also steadfastly refused to amend the record to reflect what he clearly said.

Fox News reporter Kevin Corke asked Earnest on May 9 if he could "state categorically that no senior official in this administration has ever lied publicly about any aspect of the Iran nuclear deal.” Earnest answered, "No, Kevin" -- quietly, but not inaudibly. There was an awkward silence for a moment and then he launched into some rote talking points in defense of the nuclear agreement.
ABC News first reported last Friday that the line "No, Kevin" was left out of the White House transcript with the official explanation being that the words were "inaudible."
