CNBC‘s Diana Olick wonders if a Wells Fargo & Co. executive avoided talking to her after she saw him talking to another reporter after telling her he couldn’t answer any questions.
The folks at Wells Fargo say this is an unfair assessment, and I would like to give them their say. They say he was not giving an interview, was trying to be polite to get out of the situation quickly to make his appointment, and that I should not have painted the scene that he was running away from my camera. We disagree on the events, and there’s no way around that, but I think it’s important for readers to hear where Wells Fargo is coming from.
“I would still like to interview the president of Wells Fargo, especially given the new foreclosure numbers out today, but I realize there is now a trust issue on their side. While blogs offer background color and opinions of events, my reporting is fair, accurate and unbiased. Wells Fargo has every right to disagree with perceptions. I would like to talk about the issues.”
