Breitbart News Network CEO and president Larry Solov has released a statement in response to the Donald Trump campaign’s attacks on Breitbart News reporter Michelle Fields, again calling on the campaign to apologize after Corey Lewandowski, Trump’s campaign manager, allegedly assaulted Fields at a press conference on Tuesday.
“The Washington Post just published a very detailed, first-hand account from their senior reporter Ben Terris who is familiar with the campaign, the personalities involved, and was an eyewitness to the incident,” Solov writes. “We are disappointed in the campaign’s response, in particular their effort to demean Michelle’s previous reporting. Michelle Fields is an intrepid reporter who has covered tough and dangerous stories. We stand behind her reporting, her techniques, and call again on Corey Lewandowski to apologize.”
