Transcript

Hi, I’m Bruce Maples, publisher of Forward Kentucky, and today I’d like to talk with you about something that Amy McGrath said about Charles Booker.

In a recent article in the Kentucky Lantern, which we crossposted on Forward Kentucky, Amy McGrath was being interviewed, and she said that Charles Booker’s positions were so far left that he couldn’t even get elected in New York City.

I contacted the reporter, Liam Neemeyer, who did that story and said, okay, where did she say that? Because I can’t find it anywhere except in your story. And he said it was in the interview that we did with her, and she was speaking generally about Charles Booker.
