AG Spokeswoman: Let's Muddy Up The Coverage

From the USAToday:

Tasia Scolinos
, the attorney general’s spokeswoman, provided some insight into the Justice Department’s public-relations activities in a March 5 message about the furor surrounding the removal of the prosecutors. Below is an excerpt from the documents that the committee released, with emphasis added to the part where Scolinos says she wants to “muddy the coverage”:

In preparation for tomorrow’s hearing where six of the dismissed US Attorneys will be testifying, we have drafted some talking points that we were going to insert into Will Moschella’s testimony (the DOJ witness) that get out the message that although we stand by the decision to remove these folks the process by which they were informed was not optimal.
