US State Dept. Press Secretary Calls Her Own Statement Ridiculous On Hot Mic (@2:03)


gov press secDuring a press conference this week, US State Department spokesperson Jen Psaki was caught on a hot mic calling her own prepared statement ridiculous.
Responding to a question about the recent acquittal of former Egyptian dictator Hosni Mubarak, Psaki said that:
“Generally, we continue to believe that upholding impartial standards of accountability will advance the political consensus on which Egypt’s long-term stability and economic growth depends, but beyond that I would refer you to the Egyptian government.
It was obvious that she was reading from a prepared script, because she was staring down at a sheet of paper and tripping over her words.
