My take on this is that if you can’t find anything the presidential candidate has said that is contentious and might upset his supporters, find a remark by someone on the candidates staff who said something that you can then link to the candidate by implying that the remark reflects the candidates views. It’s called “guilt by association” and is a time tested MSM technique.

When "Rudy Giuliani’s chief foreign policy adviser" makes statements about foreign policy, it is very fair to attribute the remarks to the campaign proper.
But people do sometimes go too far. In that case, Rudy will come out and rebuke his advisor, publicly distancing himself from the remarks and perhaps even firing the advisor, if he feels strongly enough that the remarks do not reflect his position. If he does, this is no longer an issue. Until then, it is.
But we'll see Shouldn't take long for Rudy to hear about this. If he does not agree, we'll know soon enough.
