BAUER ASKS FOR CORRECTION OF FALSE REPORT RE: DR. DOBSON
WASHINGTON, D.C. – Gary Bauer expressed surprise and sadness at a story Friday in the Washington Times which wrongly attributed critical statements to him about Dr. James Dobson.
He made the following statement: “I am deeply disappointed and disturbed that Washington Times reporter Ralph Hallow wrongly reported today comments allegedly made by myself about my long-time friend, Dr. James Dobson. I have worked with Dr. Dobson for years, and I respect and admire his principled stands on behalf of the family and appreciate his leadership on the issues. I did not make the personal, critical comments attributed to me about my friend and colleague.
“Dr. Dobson and I have been working closely together to find pro-life, pro-family candidates we can enthusiastically support. I have requested a prominent correction from the Washington Times in regards to the comments printed, and I look forward to continuing to work with other pro-family leaders as we navigate the current political waters. It has been my privilege to work with outstanding men and women in the conservative and pro-family movement, and now more than ever, we need to work together to be effective on behalf of hearth and home.” |
