Hillary Clinton Phones Senator Lindsey Graham To Extend Condolences

South Carolina Republican Senator Lindsey Graham received a call from a fellow presidential candidate on Saturday afternoon: that of Hillary Clinton.

The Democratic presidential candidate (Clinton) told the Republican presidential candidate that she was reaching out to give her condolences in regards to the tragedy in his home state.

“She said she was calling to see how I was doing, and wanted to let me know that she was thinking about me and about everyone in South Carolina,” Graham said to CNN.

He said he was “pleasantly surprised” to get the call – mostly because he knows that she is a busy person.

“I know firsthand how hard it is to run for president,” Graham said.

CNN Releases Audio Of Phone Conversation Contradicting Fox News Bill O’Reilly’s Oswald/de Mohrenschildt Story

Secular Talk

According to Media Matters, Bill O’Reilly has repeatedly claimed in his books and on Fox News that while he was reporting for a Dallas television station in 1977, he was directly outside the home at the moment that George de Mohrenschildt — an associate of Lee Harvey Oswald — shot himself in Florida.  The police report filed at the time makes no mention of him.

Media Matters also reported that several former colleagues and journalists at the time have disputed O’Reilly’s story.

Adding to the mounting evidence against O’Reilly’s tale are tape recordings of a phone conversation between O’Reilly and a congressional reporter who was interviewing de Mohrenschildt before his death, states Media Matters.

The recording was recently released by CNN on Reliable Sources with Brian Stelter. 

“On the tapes, O’Reilly can be heard asking the congressional reporter about the details of the suicide, and adding that he is not yet in Florida — a claim that is at odds with O’Reilly’s statements that he was near the home where de Mohrenschildt killed himself.”  Secular Talk takes a look at it.
