Kerry calls doctoring Iran briefing video ‘stupid’

WASHINGTON (AP) — Secretary of State John Kerry said Friday that whoever doctored several minutes of videotape from a State Department news briefing about the Iran nuclear negotiations was "stupid and clumsy and inappropriate."
Kerry, in Paris for discussions on restarting peace talks between Israel and the Palestinians, made his first comments on the incident in which a section of the department's daily briefing was excised from the official video. Earlier in the day, GOP committee chairmen pressed for more information about the incident.
