“The press that I spent every second with did everything they could do to get the story right, and they worked their tails off, and they weren’t around their families and they never slept — they drank a little bit.”

Smith recounted her experiences as a “press handler” Monday night as part of the “All I Got Was This Lousy T-Shirt: Campaign Embeds Look Back a Year Later” event hosted by Campus Progress and George Washington University
