Watch: Karoline Leavitt Scolds CNN Reporter for Interrupting During Press Conference

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt slammed a CNN reporter during Friday’s press briefing after he repeatedly talked over another reporter she called on.

The moment happened when CNN Chief National Affairs Correspondent Jeff Zeleny interrupted another reporter that Leavitt called.

“You’re interrupting your colleague, but sure,” Leavitt said. “I called on Lindsay.”

Zeleny proceeded to ask his question about President Donald Trump’s remarks on the altitude at which the helicopter was flying when it collided with the airplane earlier this week.

“The president based that statement on truth, because it is truth and it’s fact, and it was relayed to him by the authorities who are overseeing the investigation into this horrific plane collision,” she said.

“And the president, as I said in my opening remarks, continues to be briefed on the collision by everybody across his cabinet, the Secretary of Transportation, the Secretary of Defense, the NTSB, who the commissioner there was in the Oval Office with him yesterday.”

Leavitt then called the other reporter again and Zeleny continued to interrupt.

“Lindsay, go ahead,” Leavitt had to say in talking over Zeleny, “Lindsay, go ahead. Thank you.”
