Psaki Agrees with Fmr. DHS Secy. Blaming Press for People Not Feeling Crime Has Gone Down: ‘No Question About It’

EXCERPT:

NAPOLITANO: "Well, I think a couple of things. One is, you never see the press covering a crime that didn’t occur. The only thing that will get covered is, you know, when there is a homicide, when there is an armed robbery. You are not going to see a leading story on the local news saying Walgreens wasn’t shoplifted today. So, a part of it is just an immediate environment in which crime sits. You only cover it when it happens. And I think that’s a big part of it. Because as you know, in politics, perception becomes reality, and the media will help create the perception. And when you have a leading candidate for president who's repeating it, repeating it, repeating it, no matter how inaccurate it is, that just reinforces it."
PSAKI: "No question about it."
