Earlier, we told you about Ron DeSantis’ press secretary Bryan Griffin calling out the L.A. Times for pretending that he didn’t give them a response to their story about John Oliver’s recent anti-DeSantis rant. Griffin did, in fact, respond to their inquiry. And honestly, it’s not like they even deserved a response. Their article was basically all about how awesome and truth-bomb-y John Oliver is despite him not really knowing what the hell he’s talking about.
"DeSantis’ office did not immediately respond Monday to the Los Angeles Times’ request for comment."
Yes, I did. Within an hour. Why wasn't my comment included in the article? @latimes @christicarras https://t.co/RO5b1ahgz3 pic.twitter.com/WI8bpCf3bu

Aaaaaaanyway, it was really nice of Griffin to offer the L.A. Times a comment. And his comment was pretty much perfect. But for what it’s worth, Griffin’s colleague, DeSantis deputy press secretary Jeremy Redfern, apparently has a slightly different approach to inquiries from the press:
Dear diary,
Today, I got an interview request from the Washington Post. pic.twitter.com/uyYCMGKeNZ

It’s just one little word, but it carries so much weight. Enough weight to leave a big dent in WaPo’s face.
Everyone please take note.
This is how it's done. https://t.co/WZXgGzE2pe

You love to see it.
Background, eh? That's where they lie even more than usual, right?

That’s where they expect you to leak to them.

Nice try, WaPo.
