Michele Bachmann Bravely Runs Away from Reporters at Event She Publicized to Press

Hometown Source:

Late this morning Bachmann had met with a handful of people at a economic roundtable at the Water Street Inn in Stillwater, later visiting city hall.

Sped past reporters

At after both events the congresswoman sped past reporters, campaign staff repeatedly insisting the congresswoman was running late.

The campaign briefly tried to close the roundtable at the inn to the press, saying it was private.

But Bachmann’s own congressional office had issued a schedule to the media — at least one reporter had been encouraged to attend the event.

After a phone call, the press was let in.
