Poor Sarah, boo hoo

White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders says it bothers her that people think she misleads the media.

Sanders told The New York Times that she tries to deliver the “best and most accurate information at the time that I can,” adding that she has a responsibility to be truthful and accurate in her role as chief White House spokeswoman.

“One of the few things you have are your integrity and reputation,” Sanders said in an interview published Wednesday. “There’s a difference between misspeaking or not knowing something than maliciously lying.”

But there's no difference between lying and willful ignorance.
She stressed to the Times that she can only provide the information she is given and that sometimes the things she says will become outdated or inaccurate a few days later because a decision may have changed.

"And I can’t always know that things will be different," she said.
A few days? Things are often enough "different" while she's saying them. I don't believe she's not lying.
Sanders has said the administration is committed to a free press, despite suggestions from Trump that reporters lose their credentials for publishing negative reports.
See? Another lie.

...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.
