Against all reason, social media lit up Monday night over a photo of Kellyanne Conway in the Oval Office with her shoes on the couch. The “scandal” quickly turned from a Twitter fight into a meme and quickly disappeared beneath coverage of the president’s upcoming address to Congress.
Nevertheless, a few articles made it into publication, including a piece on Broadly that enlisted a body language expert to analyze Conway’s position in the photo.

So, what was the expert’s conclusion? If you could see our body language, the absence of any attempt to click on the Broadly piece would strongly suggest a complete lack of interest. How excited do you think your average body language expert gets when the phone rings, anyway?

In my body language expert opinion, she was checking the picture she just took of honored White House guests. ?
