White House Directs Reporters to Sex Line

In Section: NY comPRESSed Posted By: Tiffany Frasier Thursday, April 2,2009

The White House accidentally posted the number of a phone sex line on a press release meant to direct reporters to a conference call led by Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. According to The New York Post, journalists were instructed to call the number in order to join an "on-the-record briefing call with Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and National Security Advisor Jim Jones to discuss the NATO summit."

When the toll-free number was dialed, however, they didn’t hear the anticipated high-profile Obama administration officials live from the G20 summit in London discussing foreign policy. Instead of being greeted by Clinton, a soft-voiced female on the phone invited callers to enter a credit card number if they felt "like getting nasty." After being solicited for sex, reporters called the White House to report that they were not able to dial into the conference call, the White House issued a corrected press release listing the international line for reporters to dial. However, by the time this was released, the conference call was already under way.

The White House reps brushed off the phone sex mishap as a mistake, saying it was nothing more than an error.
