Mediaite reports:
Michele Morrow, a GOP state politician and “conservative activist,” blamed the media for being “dysfunctional” and promoting “gotcha moments” after CNN’s KFile tracked her down to ask on camera about her shockingly violent statements about Democrats and minority groups.

3. Say it was taken out of context.
4. Deny it ever happened when it becomes untenable to defend.
5. Blame the media, and then blame the Democrats for making them…— Alex Cole (@acnewsitics) March 24, 2024
