Issa camp says Washington Post wrong on Gunrunner story :: 06/24/2011
A spokesman for Rep. Darrell Issa, California Republican and the chairman of the House Oversight Committee, told The Daily Caller that the Washington Post is the only news organization to bite on new misleading sentiments from the Justice Department.
A Wednesday Washington Post story used anonymous Justice Department sources to bash Issa's investigation into Project Gunrunner and Operation Fast and Furious.
The anonymous sources claimed that Issa attended a classified April 2010 briefing for members of Congress and their staffers about the programs that have allowed American guns into Mexican drug cartels' hands.
Issa spokesman Frederick Hill told The Daily Caller the Post is the first newspaper to run these DOJ claims, but not the first one the Justice Department went to with them.
"We have had people who have contacted us before the Washington Post," Hill said. "They told us people in the Justice Department were trying to push this story and I think a number of publications didn't think it was credible or, for whatever reason, decided not to run it."
