WFTV's Interview Too Tough For Biden; Campaign Validates Questioner's Marxism Point By Cutting Off Station - But Will Talk To Foreign Dictators Without Pre-conditions

"Obama campaign cuts off WFTV after Biden interview" reports that the Obama campaign took umbrage at some questions asked of Joe Biden by Barbara West at WFTV - and is punishing them by cutting them off.

Biden so disliked West's line of questioning that the Obama campaign canceled a WFTV interview with Jill Biden, the candidate's wife.

"This cancellation is non-negotiable, and further opportunities for your station to interview with this campaign are unlikely, at best for the duration of the remaining days until the election," wrote Laura K. McGinnis, Central Florida communications director for the Obama campaign.

McGinnis said the Biden cancellation was "a result of her husband's experience yesterday during the satellite interview with Barbara West."

WFTV news director Bob Jordan said, "When you get a shot to ask these candidates, you want to make the most of it. They usually give you five minutes."

Jordan said political campaigns in general pick and choose the stations they like. And stations often pose softball questions during the satellite interviews.

"Mr. Biden didn't like the questions," Jordan said. "We choose not to ask softball questions."

Jordan added, "I'm crying foul on this one."
