Why She Confronted Journalists at a White House Event

Everyone is asking why I even went to the White House Correspondence Center,

and it was because many of the journalists in that room have attempted to dehumanize me,

and I wanted to meet some of them face-to-face, quite frankly. Why have a conversation about me

when you can have a conversation with me? So, for example, a journalist from the Daily Mail

came up to me. She introduced herself, and she was saying she was very gracious. She was saying,

you look so beautiful. I'm so sorry for your loss.

To which I replied, it is so nice to put a name to the face, especially with all the slander,

the lies, accusations that are out there surrounding my husband's murder and myself.

And I said to her, you know what's so interesting? This is my first time at the White House

Correspondence Center, and I find it so fascinating, the dynamic that is going on right

now, because everyone is all dressed up, and you guys are co-mingling in and out of each other's

cocktail parties. And so for one night, you were able to put aside all of your differences for the

sake of freedom of speech. And then by Monday morning, things will go back to being an absolute

bloodbath between all of you. To which she replied, literally, she said,

I know. Isn't it special, right? Isn't tonight so special?
