Chris Christie is bummed reporters won't apologize over Bridgegate


Chris Christie wants to know why reporters won't say sorry to him for their coverage of Bridgegate.
Comparing the media's treatment of him to their treatment of Hillary Clinton, the New Jersey governor and likely 2016 candidate claimed in an interview Thursday with CNBC that he was the victim of liberal media bias.
"You saw the coverage of me 15 months ago. I was guilty, guilty, I had done it," Christie said. "Now we're 15 months later. Where are the apologies pouring in, that not one thing I said the day after the bridge situation has been proven to be wrong?"
