Mayor de Blasio’s spokeswoman got into a heated confrontation with a TV reporter Wednesday after the mayor refused to answer questions about a homeless encampment in Soho.
The showdown between Karen Hinton and WCBS/Channel 2 reporter Marcia Kramer came in the Blue Room of City Hall, once the mayor rushed out following a bill-signing ceremony and ignored questions Kramer directed at him.
She then approached Hinton to ask why she had been told the homeless encampment had been removed when it was still there.
“It was not true information, was it?” Kramer demanded.
“It was inaccurate information,” Hinton responded. “There’s a difference between inaccurate information and a lie.”
