Guiliani Staging Mid-Speech Cell Phone Calls?

by Tim Stevens on September 28, 2007 at 09:01 AM


While everyone today walks around with a cell phone in his pocket or purse, most people have the common sense to set it on silent when in theaters or, say, giving speeches. Forget that, and you run the risk of embarrassment, like a woman at a recent press conference for presidential hopeful Rudy Giuliani who was called out by the man himself during his speech when her phone rang. Odd, then, that he would interrupt his own speech when his cell phone rang as he stood on the podium at the National Rifle Association. It was his wife, of course, who he chatted with for a few moments before saying he'd call back later.

Impromptu glimpse into the "real" Rudy Giuliani? Not likely. Apparently that same call happened during another speech in Florida, making this seem like a very poorly-planned comedy skit. Unfortunately for him, nobody's laughing.
