Gov. Kristi Noem defends including story about killing her dog in book

South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem tells "Face the Nation" that her forthcoming book has been "edited" after her claim about meeting Kim Jong Un turned out to be false. She also said that she shared a story about killing her 14-month-old dog Cricket because "I want the truth to be out there."

"Face the Nation" is America's premier Sunday morning public affairs program. The broadcast is one of the longest-running news programs in the history of television, having debuted Nov. 7, 1954, on CBS. Every Sunday, "Face the Nation" moderator and CBS News senior foreign affairs correspondent Margaret Brennan welcomes leaders, newsmakers, and experts to a lively round table discussion of current events and the latest news.

In Japan she would be prosecuted and face jail time under their 1973 Animal Management and Welfare Act.

She had an “untrainable” bird-hunting dog that she shot when it actually killed some birds.

[russell]

Why did the poor goat take 2 shots? Was it because you used bird shot from the bird hunting earlier?…. Bird shot is not made to take down anything bigger than a rabbit.

[TonyaTipton]

Why hasn't she been arrested yet? They put Michael Vick in jail for animal cruelty and this lady shot a dog in the head, along with a goat

[CraigsListMM]

Why do you have to retract statements in YOUR book?

[RawOlympia]

It's indefensible. Sick sick woman, are her children even safe?

[laurak]

Wow she just lies and lies. It’s her book.

[reecom]

Kristi Noem never met Kim Jong Un and it was a mistake that wasn’t caught by the publisher and she wasn‘t aware of the mistake. It’s her book that she says she wrote! She even recorded an audio book saying the mistake in the audio recording!

[Kimm.J]

She said that they were members of her family- Much beloved.
Then she 🔫 them 💥

[odshckg]

This woman destroyed herself writing this book! Liars always find a way!

[tayloraverett]

Watching Noem in this interview is like watching the Hindenburg crash and burn...

[simonheindl]
