Another person to call WOLF out on her jokes, was New York Times' Maggie Haberman. WOLF replied to this as well, claiming she didn't make comments about Sanders' appearance at all and rather just about her "despicable behavior."
That @PressSec sat and absorbed intense criticism of her physical appearance, her job performance, and so forth, instead of walking out, on national television, was impressive.
