It's a discussion about White House press secretary Sean Spicer, on his first full day in that job, having taken to the podium and made easily disproved claims about the size of Trump's inauguration crowd.

“Why put him out there for the very first time, in front of that podium, to utter a provable falsehood?” Chuck Todd asked Kellyanne Conway, counselor to the president. “It's a small thing, but the first time he confronts the public, it's a falsehood?”

After some tense back and forth, Conway offered this:

Don't be so overly dramatic about it, Chuck. You're saying it's a falsehood, and they're giving — our press secretary, Sean Spicer, gave alternative facts to that. But the point really is —

Alternative facts?? Quite a reply to a direct and clear comment on falsehoods.
My the news conferences at the WH will certainly be interesting.
I am interested in hearing what this new term"Alternative Facts" is.
Go ahead, pls define.

"Alternative Facts" are like Velveeta cheese or a bottle of White Zinfandel wine.

Not "truths".

Here are some examples:

"If you like your plan, you can keep your plan".

"The ACA will lower insurance premiums".

"The most transparent administration in history".

"Obama deported more illegals than any other president".

Just off the top of my head.

You're right, Trump is doing what Obama has done, but just turning it up a notch or two.

Kellyanne...who is usually a master at keeping a straight face while lying.....as a hard time getting this one out and can't keep a straight face when she is being questioned on Meet the Press. This is going to be 4 years of nothing but propoganda and lies.

Why should we distrust Donald? Everything he has predicted so far has come true. We should give him the benefit of the doubt.

I heard her say that. It obviously wasn't what she meant to say, and IMHO she just made a verbal mistake in her wording because Chuck Todd had pissed her off.

I'm sure within 48 hours there will be something new to be outraged about. That is what is so special about Trump, he keeps things fresh.

Todd didn't want to talk about the MLK bust falsehood. He stormed his way right past that.

Something new and just as childish, no doubt. Do you realize that to date, no one has come up with one significant bitch about President Trump? There's a lesson to be learned here: choose your battles wisely. I doubt the Libbos will heed that advice, though.

Poor little snowflake media.

They get rightfully spanked...now they are mad as hell...and they are going to fill their shows with their anger for the foreseeable future.

They'd better get used to it. They are likely to get spanked over and over until they make responsible decisions.

When are they going to tell us some real...some important...news?
