Gisele Fetterman says NBC journo should face 'consequences' over revealing interview with her husband

Pennsylvania Democrat Senate candidate John Fetterman has some things in common with President Biden, and one of those is that he doesn’t do many sit-down interviews. One recent Fetterman interview showed exactly why that is after NBC reporter Dasha Burns pointed out that Fetterman had a hard time communicating and understanding what he was hearing during their talk. Burns also pointed out that Fetterman was assisted by a computer program that transcribed her questions for him:

Because Fetterman has that protective “D” after his name, the focus for many on the Left and in the media suddenly was on the reporter instead of the candidate. Among those saying the NBC reporter should face some sort of “consequence” for the telling interview is the Dem Senate candidate’s wife, Gisele Fetterman:

Gisele Fetterman with harsh words for NBC's Dasha Burns, saying her description of "small talk" with her husband left her feeling close to "rage."

"I don't know how there were not consequences."

Indicated that she wants an apology, but it hasn't come.

Have many members of the media actually defended Burns for simply doing her job as a reporter? We haven’t seen much of that.

If a candidate needs to be protected and a member of the media punished for interviewing them, that candidate is not fit to serve in the Senate. https://t.co/FIo0LXCBvy

And attacking the reporter used to be a “grave threat to democracy and the First Amendment.” Now, not so much.

Appears want an apology from the reporter and the network to take some unspecified action against the reporter who did the interview. Very healthy stuff here https://t.co/iblVwymlSH

1- @JohnFetterman won’t release his medical records. He could.

Therefore no one knows what Fetterman suffers from or what his prognosis is. All we know is he had a stroke. The rest is hypocritical.@DashaBurns is not the villain. Her interview was fair. It was also revealing. https://t.co/5WA6h6uKSH

You can tell that so many Democrats just assume the media is going to take their side that they get furious when actual journalism takes place.

Consequences?

We have journalists LYING DAILY ABOUT FAR WORSE.

Will we admit this is an attack on a journalist simply doing her job?

Or are Dems going to remain silent, and allow a Democratic candidate to 'pull a Trump' and attack any journalist that opposes them? https://t.co/KpqtAUhAm2

We’ll assume those good questions to be rhetorical until the Dems prove otherwise. Shouldn’t at least Jim Acosta be hyperventilating about this attack on a journalist? Guess not.

Don’t practice journalism against a Democrat. No one told Dasha Burns that. Now Burns is in real trouble. And almost none of her so-called colleagues will stand up for her. https://t.co/VHYSKNWcbR
