Former Whitehouse Press Secretary Katie Zacharia

Law degree = lawyer
Getting licensed = attorney

A "lawyer" cannot practice law. To do this they must pass the bar.

Literally the only ones making a big deal out of this are leftists who think they have some kind of a "gotcha" moment when everyone else couldn't really give a shit.

Whoever fired her must have thought something about her was a big 'bad' deal. LOL!

"An attorney can call themselves either a lawyer or an attorney. However, a lawyer may or may not be an attorney. In the U.S., the only requirement for calling oneself a lawyer is that they graduated law school. They do not have to pass a bar exam or be admitted to a state bar."

They can call themselves whatever they want, which means nothing. A lawyer cannot practice law. Only someone who passed the bar can do that.

Her law degree is from Pepperdine School of Law in California.

You have to Remember the person you are replying to
Voted for Biden & Khvntmala & thought they both were competent 

Thought and still think they both were more competent. At this point it is beginning to look like anyone would be more competent than what we have.

Fox news cared. Many there were quite critical of her. You don't think Sean Hannity cared? And it is somewhat of an embarrassment for the admin you have to admit. I forget who it was but some conservative previously unknown to me felt this whole episode was embarrassing. The press sec is important for the image of the admin. It's no big deal to me, I don't care, I think it's just a bit funny.

Aside from the validity of the talking points, or propaganda, Karoline Leavitt seemed very competent to me. I was pretty impressed how she was never lost for words.

IroNat, regarding her calling herself a lawyer, I think they counted 17 times Zacharia had represented herself as an attorney. She said she had only retweeted others who called her an attorney. Not that I care much, but...

Probably not a good look for Press Secretary to be a compulsive liar, who is bad at lying, and get so tripped up dealing with the press that Sean Hannity trying to bail you out accidentally leads to you trashing your boss and admitting to lying.

[GymnJuice]

I look at them as if they’re all liars. They're just glorified ministers of propaganda. I don’t put much stock in what they say anyway, and I find the whole situation pretty comical.

And I'd still hit it. Even better now that she's on the rebound

you come across like you were neglected.

It’s not the leftists that shit canned her ass and sent her packing. 

[LurkerNoMore]

Being fired on a Friday made this even more appropriate.

[Coach is Back!]

But they’re the ones celebrating for no reason lol

[LurkerNoMore]

But they’re the ones celebrating for no reason lol

Oh, there is a reason for sure.

[Necrosis]

But they’re the ones celebrating for no reason lol

so it's normal to hire and fire someone for such an important position within a week? It's retarded and is a microcosm of the whole administration. Reactionary, impulsive, dilettantish and low iq.
