Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul’s wife is accusing the media of making things worse for her husband as he recovers from an attack by a neighbor that left him badly injured earlier this month. “It is incredibly hurtful that some news outlets have victimized Rand a second time as he struggles to recover,” Kelley Paul wrote in a piece published Tuesday on CNN.com. Kelley Paul said such characterizations are wrong. “This was not a ‘scuffle,’ a ‘fight’ or an ‘altercation,’ as many in the media falsely describe it,” Kelley Paul wrote. Since the attack, Kelley Paul said her husband hasn’t taken a “single” breath “without pain.”“He has not had a single night's sleep uninterrupted by long periods of difficult breathing or excruciating coughing,” she said.
