Sam Armytage has defended her questioning of Kathy Griffin yesterday following some media articles that led with Griffin’s line about being “full of crap.”
The Sunrise host took to Twitter to suggest media view the full interview where she told Griffin it was her job to ask questions.
She found support from ABC’s News Breakfast presenter Michael Rowland, who dubbed Griffin a “Prima Donna” for her reaction to Armytage.
Not often rival shows will find common ground but kudos to those here.
Please watch this morning's interview prior to ingesting the sensationalist headlines surrounding it.
I stand by all my questions. https://t.co/tXHNeFSYba— Samantha Armytage (@sam_armytage) August 29, 2017

I just don't find beheadings to be particularly funny.
And I think I have a fairly decent sense of humour…… https://t.co/ujfOKdfTlT— Samantha Armytage (@sam_armytage) August 29, 2017

Gosh that look on Kathy’s face when Sam is talking at the end looks as though she is about to burst, then the awkward smile on Sam’s face when kochie is wrapping up… One for the Christmas Reel!
