If Tapper had put down his chicken sandwich and rented The War Room, he'd know that Mickey Kantor did not call Indiana voters "shit"

SUMMARY: Referring to the false allegation that in the 1993 movie The War Room, Clinton campaign adviser Mickey Kantor called Indiana voters "shit," Jake Tapper wrote on his blog: "Were I not currently eating a chicken sandwich at Liberty East Restaurant in Charlotte, NC, while working on a World News piece about the economy and the candidates, I would go to Blockbuster, rent a copy of The War Room and settle this matter as much as possible." Media Matters for America did obtain a copy of the film and does indeed "settle" the matter; Kantor did not call anyone "shit," and he was not referring to Hoosiers when he said, "Those people are shitting."
