Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. press dinner devolves into ‘screaming and polemic farting’: NY Post

A campaign event for Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. was reportedly interrupted when two guests got into a screaming match over climate change and one made a noxious gas emission.

The New York Post’s Page Six gave a bizarre account of how Tuesday’s press dinner for the Democratic presidential candidate “descended into a foul bout of screaming and polemic farting.” A Post reporter who attended the event witnessed a “gaseous exchange” between two old men after Kennedy, who founded the conservationist group Waterkeeper Alliance, was asked a question about the environment.

According to Page Six, the question posed to Kennedy set off Doug Dechert, a former Post gossip columnist and current PR flack who hosted the dinner for Kennedy.
