Conservative House leader defends Wilson.

Rep. Heather Wilson’s (R-NM) pressure call to U.S. Attorney David Iglesias may have violated ethics rules, but House Minority Whip Roy Blunt (R-MO) is sticking by her. On Wednesday, Blunt defended Wilson and said he did not believe she did anything wrong. “I have confidence in her,” Blunt said.

UPDATE: Media Matters notes that ABC and NBC still haven’t covered the U.S. Attorney firings.
