A public clash has erupted between the White House and Vanity Fair after journalist Chris Whipple forcefully rejected claims by Trump chief of staff Susie Wiles that his recent profile of her was a misleading 'hit piece.'
Whipple, a veteran political reporter and author known for chronicling White House power dynamics, says every quote attributed to Wiles in the two-part Vanity Fair series was given knowingly, recorded and on the record, a direct contradiction of Wiles' assertion that her remarks were taken out of context.
