Democratic Candidate For Governor, Mike Hatch, Calls Reporter A "Republican Whore"
Forum Communications Co., which owns several Minnesota newspapers, reported that Hatch lashed out at a reporter questioning him about a gaffe by his running mate, Judi Dutcher, on Thursday.
The Forum account said Hatch abruptly ended the interview with: "You're nothing more than a Republican whore. Goodbye," and then hung up.
Hatch, speaking to reporters Friday, denied using the word "whore."
"My recollection is that I said a Republican hack," Hatch said.
