Kelly, who asked Pompeo on Friday’s episode of Morning Edition about Iran and the ousting of former U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch, said the secretary was angered by her line of questioning and “shouted” at her in a private room following the interview. Kelly also said Pompeo challenged her to point out Ukraine on an unmarked map, which she did.

Pompeo didn’t deny that the exchange occurred in an official statement released Saturday, but he accused Kelly of lying about the meeting being off the record. Kelly said no request to keep the discussion off the record was made, adding that she wouldn’t have agreed to do it anyway. The secretary said Kelly violated the “basic rules of journalism and decency,” providing “another example of how unhinged the media has become in its quest to hurt President Trump.”
