Earlier in the week, California gubernatorial candidate Meg Whitman held a press event in Oakland and then refused to take questions, frustrating local reporters who she had invited to her event. A day later, Whitman was in Southern California and filmed what appears to be a fake town hall, in which people were pre-screened, asked to applaud (Whitman: "lots of cheering would be good") and asked to re-ask specific questions so that Whitman could re-answer them in a better way.
