CNN found the backup audio of Warren / Sanders’ terse exchange at the Democratic Debate

January 15, 2020 By Egberto Willies

CNN had the backup recording system rolling at the Democratic Debate as it picked up the tense exchange between Bernie Sander and Elizabeth Warren.

Democratic Debate Warren Sanders(CNN)In a tense and dramatic exchange in the moments after the Democratic debate Tuesday night, Elizabeth Warren accused Bernie Sanders of calling her a liar on national television.

Sanders responded that it was Warren who called him a liar and said they should not talk about it right then.

When the CNN/Des Moines Register debate concluded, the studio audience and viewers saw Warren walk over to Sanders and not shake his outstretched hand. The two senators seemed to have a heated and brief exchange before Sanders appeared to throw his hands up, turn and walk away. The video of the exchange aired live with no audio.

But sound of the moment was caught by CNN’s microphones and found Wednesday.
 
“I think you called me a liar on national TV,” Warren can be heard saying.
“What?” Sanders responded.
“I think you called me a liar on national TV,” she repeated.
“You know, let’s not do it right now. If you want to have that discussion, we’ll have that discussion,” Sanders said, to which Warren replied, “Anytime.”
“You called me a liar,” Sanders continued. “You told me — all right, let’s not do it now.”
After their exchange, fellow Democratic candidate Tom Steyer, who had been standing behind the two senators, can be heard saying, “I don’t want to get in the middle. I just want to say hi Bernie.”
A spokesperson for the Sanders campaign declined to comment on the audio. A spokesperson for Warren’s campaign did not respond to a request for comment.

There must be a misunderstanding in the context of whatever occurred between these two progressives. But Bernie was saying the right things before many.

I think we should put this one to rest and remember Warren’s excellent comment.
