“Editor’s Note: Since this story aired, Hillary Clinton’s campaign contacted NPR to say that the campaign paid Maid-Rite a bill for $157 the day of Clinton’s visit and left $100 in tip money. NPR contacted Maid-Rite manager Brad Crawford, who confirmed that a bill was paid and tip money was left. Crawford, who was not in the restaurant at the time, said that he believes a campaign staffer left the money with one of his employees, but “where Hillary was sitting, there was no tip left.” Neither Anita Esterday nor the manager on duty that day were available for comment as of noon Thursday.”
This is the spin that NPR puts on this now - I tried copying the on screen original article and it redacts it when pasted; so far, you can still read it by following the link at the top of this post.
Who’s next? The National Archives?
The Klinton’s silence all kritics.
Wapo quashes it as well with a few curious comments:
