WFTV On List For No More Interviews After Anchor Likened Spread The Wealth Plan To Marxism
ORLANDO, FL - The Barack Obama campaign has banned a Florida tv station from doing anymore interviews with the democratic presidential ticket.
The move comes after Orlando anchor Barbara West asked v-p hopeful Joe Biden about Obama's so-called "Spread The Wealth" plan, likening it to Marxism:
Barbara West/WFTV Anchor: You may recognize this famous quote, from each according to his abilities, to each according to his needs, thats from Karl Marx, how is Senator Obama not being a Marxist if he intends to spread the wealth around? BIDEN: are you joking, is this a joke, is this a real question? he is not spreading the wealth around he's talking about giving the middle class to get back the tax breaks they used to have.
The Obama camp called the interview hostile. The anchor says she was just doing her job.
