Axelrod Presses Woodward On Whether He Felt Threatened

[DonViejo]

Former White House adviser and current MSNBC analyst David Axelrod on Friday pressed Bob Woodward on whether he really felt threatened by Obama administration official Gene Sperling.

"The headline in the Washington Post, your newspaper, was Woodward says that he was threatened by the White House," Axelrod said on MSNBC's "Morning Joe."

"But I never have. Come on. You know that. No," Woodward said.

(The headline on the Washington Post actually read: "Woodward vs. White House: Washington at its weirdest.&quot

"They got the impression, from what you said, that you felt you were being threatened," Axelrod continued. "And you just read to the Politico one line from that email. And when the full emails came out they were as cordial as can be. His email was cordial, and your response was cordial. So if you felt threatened, why didn't you say to Gene, don't threaten me?

He's been a joke for a long time now.

2. you'd think Woodward would be rich enough that he doesn't have to dream up such

absurd stunts to sell books.
