Kellyanne Conway on Sunday defended her famous assertion that the Trump administration’s lies are actually “alternative facts,” characterizing her remark as a flub similar to last week’s snafu over the best picture Oscar. Back in January, Conway, a top adviser to President Donald Trump, had suggested that White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer “gave alternative facts” about the audience at Trump’s inauguration. In an interview on “CBS Sunday Morning,” Conway claimed that she’d meant “alternative information and additional facts,” and she dismissed it all as just a mistake. Everybody thinks it’s just so funny that the wrong movie was, you know, heralded as the winner of the Oscars. “What people should do, what I’ve always done with others, is look at the measure of someone’s career,” she said.
