So in other words, a politician asked a question by the media, answered the question, and is now lambasted by the media for being honest?

Again, I'm no Anders supporter, but people complain and wonder why we only ever get dishonest politicians who only regurgitate party talking points?

This reporter sounds spineless to set up a lunch and lead someone to believe they're being given an honest interview only to use it to make try and make them look bad. Shame.
