Fitzwater - What Cheney should have done

Laura Rosen found this gem: Former White House spokesman Marlin Fitzwater tells Joe Strupp

'What [Dick Cheney] should have done was call his press secretary and tell her what happened and she then would have gotten a hold of the doctor and asked him what happened. Then interview [ranch owner] Katharine Armstrong to get her side of events and then put out a statement to inform the public. They could have done all of that in about two hours on Saturday. It is beyond me why it was not done this way.''
