WRONG: These are many annual memberships of $399 per person, in accordance with employee wellness program, not one employee's membership.pic.twitter.com/W3jXlByCk4

So, no there is not a scandal over a $14,799 gym membership. http://www.atr.org/sites/default/files/assets/Purchase%20Card%20Allocation%20Transactions.pdf …pic.twitter.com/Dop6Y37eYw
What's next, @Heritage?
And, if Daily Caller/Daily Signal/Heritage just took this spoon-fed from ATR & @GroverNorquist, who they let give this quote ... phew.pic.twitter.com/joxuXioqvH
Anyway, here it is at Daily Caller, too:http://dailycaller.com/2017/04/13/epa-staffer-uses-government-credit-card-to-buy-15k-gym-membership/ …
Lol @ the author defending this. [And still being wrong even in his version of his defense. He can't read his own documents.]pic.twitter.com/frd9vKjdRd
Daily Caller reporter gets fed documents showingpic.twitter.com/TPH37AAmk3
Reporter can't read the full document, including seeing the number 37 ...pic.twitter.com/T8z1365abA
Or, apparently, see that the last four pages of the documents he used shows that it's not 19 (which he says now but wasn't in his article).
tl;dr: @AndrewCFollett is either a very bad reporter, can't read, or just wanted to spend an afternoon trolling @cjane87 and me. I'm tired.
STORY "... a $14,799 gym membership." / "Kevin Broadnax bought a 37-year membership ..." / "... his nearly $15,000 membership." VS. TWEETSpic.twitter.com/8AqLkpR23B
The story at the Daily Caller has been updated. It is still wrong and is now also grammatically incoherent. (h/t @cjane87)pic.twitter.com/VWszgwQzc3
BELATED CORRECTION: The Daily Caller corrected the hed and 2nd graf (but kept the odd first fix-ish opening graf). http://dailycaller.com/2017/04/13/epa-staffer-uses-government-credit-card-to-buy-15k-gym-membership/ …pic.twitter.com/oRfbhFW1YT
So, this is the full ~evolution~ of that Daily Caller story. Note: It does not mention any correction was ever made.pic.twitter.com/CX8EKmEDe3
Claims to cite DCNF report...accidentally cites Daily Signal. What a classic Buzzfeed move
dude, that’s in YOUR PIECE.
No...it isn't. Thing in media called "licensing." Compare my DC page to the Daily Signal author page. Or read the bottom of my every article
I didn't "accidentally cite" anything, Andrew. The thread refers to all entities, and the same inaccurate article.
Tis not inaccurate. Just apparently far to confusing enough for certain peps to manipulate to avoid talking about actual issue.
