Armstrong, you are grossly misrepresenting and falsely stating what Bill Clinton actually said on the “fairy tale” issue.
Clinton did not say that Obama was having a fairy tale campaign. Someone of your visibility and years of experience should be held to the standard of reviewing the clear public record on a matter so controversial with racially charged implications.
What Clinton actually said, and I do not agree with him but believe he should be treated fairly, was that Obama claiming a major difference with Hillary about Iraq was the fairy tale.
Again, I do not agree with Bill Clinton about this, but he never suggested, and should never be quoted as having suggested, that the Obama campaign was a fairy tale.
With all due respect I believe you owe Clinton, Obama and readers a correction and apology.
We have the right to our different opinions, but those of us who are highly visible, who reach a larger audience, and have years of experience in this business should hold ourselves to a far higher standard than so egregiously misrepresenting the comments of a former president about a leading presidential candidate, especially on so sensitive a matter.
