Kellyanne Conway’s appearance on Meet The Press Sunday morning may not have enhanced her reputation as an expert spinner after she defended Press Secretary Sean Spicer’s deliberate press conference falsehood as “alternative facts.”

A defensive Conway battled with NBC host Chuck Todd Sunday morning over reporters’ complaints about Spicer’s lies, saying, “Don’t be so overly dramatic about it, Chuck. They’re saying it’s a falsehood and our press secretary, Sean Spicer, gave alternative facts to that.”

Viewers immediate picked up on the “alternative facts” and Twitter — naturally — erupted.
