As soon as the Washington Post told me they wanted to do a story on Outkick I knew what was coming. The usual far left wing smear job to try and make me -- and Outkick -- look awful. Been there, done that. In fact, all of you knew what was coming as well. //

Putting how minimal these quotations are in context, the transcript of my conversation with the Washington Post was 28 single-spaced pages.

28 pages!

We talked for over an hour nearly a month ago.

That’s tens of thousands of words. The Washington Post picked less than 100 of them and lifted those quotes out of context and placed them in a negative light in their story. //

Washington Post: So I guess before sort of like as we start, so you, I don’t like it’s totally your prerogative to record it. I’m just like, are you planning to then release it or what?

Clay Travis: I have found that I like to do live media, right. So if I’m going to talk for 20 or 30 minutes, I would rather do it live so that everybody can hear it entirely in context. If I give a long interview answer to a question and one sentence gets pulled out, and everybody’s like, “Oh, my God, Clay, Travis said x,” and I’m like, well, actually, when you look at the context of it, it’s not exactly as it was portrayed. I want the context. //

Washington Post: So it’s like, don’t quote me out of context. And I have the receipts to prove it. And then also potentially, I want to share it with my audience.

Clay Travis: 100% percent.
