Paul Ryan Stumbles in Interview on Gun Control
Campaign claims interviewer went over the allotted time
BuzzFeed has captured footage from a Flint, Mich. interview on ABC yesterday in which a reporter grilled Paul Ryan about his stances on gun control.
According to a statement released to BuzzFeed by Ryan's spokesman, Brendan Buck: "The reporter knew he was already well over the allotted time for the interview when he decided to ask a weird question relating gun violence to tax cuts. Ryan responded as anyone would in such a strange situation. When you do nearly 200 interviews in a couple months, eventually you're going to see a local reporter embarrass himself."

Okay, I heard audio and I didn't hear the stumble. I did, however, hear editorializing by the journalist.
Didn't look like a stumble to me.
