This month the New York Times ran a story alleging that frequent White House visitor Al Sharpton has millions of dollars in unpaid taxes.
White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest was asked about it at today’s press conference, and his answer was classic:
Of course, White House Press Sec. Josh Earnest plays dumb when asked about WH Advisor Al Sharpton's $4 million tax tab to the IRS

So the White House no longer even reads the New York Times? Go figure!
Josh Earnest said he hasn't read the stories in the NYT about Sharpton's tax issues….evidently NO ONE IN THE WH CARES ABOUT THE NEWS

@KatiePavlich Lois Lerner probably misplaced all documentation related to that case as well.

At some point they might learn about it from “news reports.” Or maybe not.
@KatiePavlich Funny how the three spouses/siblings of the three networks – ABC,CBS,NBC – work inside the WH, but never know anything.
