There was just a pretty funny back-and-forth between Daily Beast reporter Betsy Woodruff and Hillary Clinton press secretary Brian Fallon that left the Democratic operative with a pretty sizable helping of egg on his face.

At issue was this new story from Woodruff on Tim Kaine’s call for Bill Clinton to resign over his affair with Monica Lewinsky:

The time Tim Kaine said Bill Clinton should have resigned over the Lewinsky scandal: https://t.co/1zLgCNGXlQ — Betsy Woodruff (@woodruffbets) August 17, 2016

Fallon accused Woodruff of doing the story without any quotes, which would indeed be bad, if true:

@woodruffbets Except there is no quote contained in your story where he actually said that — Brian Fallon (@brianefallon) August 17, 2016

Except it wasn’t true and she did quote from multiple new outlets who had reported the quote back in 2002:

@brianefallon are you disputing the accuracy of the Times-Dispatch's and Post's reporting? — Betsy Woodruff (@woodruffbets) August 17, 2016

@brianefallon so it's the Clinton campaign's position that the Times-Dispatch and WaPo reporting is incorrect – got it — Betsy Woodruff (@woodruffbets) August 17, 2016

Here’s the exact quote:

Fallon doubled-down on his stupidity:

@woodruffbets You exaggerated what even the Post said. You relied on a paraphrase from only Richmond T-D. AP gave actual quote; you ignored — Brian Fallon (@brianefallon) August 17, 2016

@woodruffbets Lousy piece of oppo. You shd ask whoever pitched it if they knew about AP and just misled you, or if they missed it entirely — Brian Fallon (@brianefallon) August 17, 2016

Maybe he didn’t read her entire piece, because that AP quote is in there, too:
