Chelsea Clinton Slaps Down Katy Tur Over Chozick Fact Checking Claims

Chelsea Clinton made Katy Tur eat her words Wednesday after the MSNBC host insinuated the former first daughter was lying over reports on the latest Hillary Clinton campaign book.

The incident started when Clinton accused The New York Times’ Amy Chozick — author of Chasing Hillary: Ten Years, Two Presidential Campaigns, and One Intact Glass Ceiling” — of not properly fact checking her claims.

Naturally, media figures defended Chozick. Tur shot down Clinton’s claims by saying that Chozick’s fact checker also fact checked her own book, and was therefore infallible.

Chelsea quickly set the record straight…

… and Katy folded like a lawn chair.

Game recognize game.
