Clinton Press Corps Banished to Men's Room

Posted on March 4, 2008

Last night Hillary Clinton was in Austin, Texas for a "Texas sized townhall" and the traveling press corps had to be put somewhere. So the Clinton campaign found a space in the Burger Activity Center that could house them all: the men's locker room. But the campaign didn't know beforehand that there were actually urinals in the room. The press set up their laptops after discovering that the space did, at least, have Wi-Fi access. When the reality of the space was conveyed to the Clinton campaign, spokesman Doug Hattaway quipped: "These accommodations should in no way be taken as a comment on the quality of our media coverage." Ha!
