Stelter to Barnette: Did You Regret Shutting out the Media? Why Didn’t You Answer Basic Questions?

EXCERPT:

BARNETTE: "Yeah, no, that's not true, Brian. I did not shut the media out of any event that I was in charge of. I was a guest at someone else's rally."
STELTER: "Okay."
BARNETTE: "And so, as their guest, they got to make the rules. But the next day I held a press conference, there were well over 30 different media outlets, I have leaned forward the entire time to share my story I've lived — "
STELTER: "That's correct."
BARNETTE: " — an extraordinary America first life."
STELTER: "That's a — that's a fair point that it was Mastriano at that event in Bucks County. Why not answer the basic questions that people asked you during the campaign, though? Last weekend on 'Fox News Sunday,' you were asked where were you an adjunct professor, and you did not answer that basic question."
BARNETTE: "No, that's not true, Brian. So, again — "
STELTER: "It is. I have the transcripts here."
BARNETTE: "And so again, I don't know if it's — "
STELTER: "You still haven't told us where you taught."
BARNETTE: "I don't know if it's laziness or being insidious."
STELTER: "Where did you teach?"
BARNETTE: "No, no. Well, I don't know if it's laziness as journalists or just something more insidious, but it is a dereliction of duty because it is all right there.”
