Watch Kellyanne Conway get laughed at for hitting out at people who ‘lie on TV’
Kellyanne Conway has been laughed at in an interview by an audience, adter attacking people who lie on TV – exactly the thing she has been accused of doing.
The counsellor to Trump appeared in an interview at the Newseum on Wednesday.
She said that, newspapers are fine if “editors are still doing their jobs”, but that television is filled with people who “say things that just aren’t true”.
“You can turn on the TV — more than you can read in the paper because I assume editors are still doing their jobs in most places — and people literally say things that just aren’t true,” Conway said.
“They’re not even disguised as opinion.”
As the crowd burst out laughing, Conway appears to wink and replies “year”.

SNL returned earlier this year, and couldn’t leave one person alone – Kellyanne Conway, AKA ‘Couch Legs’.
Senior White House advisor Conway was last month banned from making TV appearances for a week, and has made less appearances since a number of blunders including citing a fake terrorist incident and defending embattled national security advisor Michael Flynn just hours before he resigned.
Conway last month attempted to redefine feminism – and the dictionary really wasn’t impressed.
Earlier this year Conway claimed she didn’t retweet and respond to a white nationalist and it must have been someone else from her Twitter account.
When confronted by BuzzFeed about her support of a white nationalist, she claimed she didn’t do it and didn’t know who did.
“I don’t know who had access to my account,” she said.
“Let me see who tweeted that. That’s terrible.
“I denounce whoever it is. It will be immediately deleted. Everybody makes mistakes.”
Conway has proven a controversial figure since joining President Trump’s campaign.
Just hours before he resigned as national security advisor, Conway said Michael Flynn “does enjoy the full confidence of the president.”
She also said the next day that Flynn stepped down of his own volition.
Both statements were contradicted shortly afterwards by White House spokesman Sean Spicer.
Conway also earlier this year talked about the fictional ‘Bowling Green massacre’ during an interview.
Bravo star Andy Cohen said last month that he wanted to recruit her for a series of Real Housewives.
Kristen Stewart last month took aim at Trump, saying he’s “obsessed” with her ex-boyfriend Robert Pattinson, and that she’s “so gay dude”.
Melissa McCarthy also took to SNL as Trump’s Press Secretary Sean Spicer.
