Donald Trump's campaign manager, Corey Lewandowski, is not happy with BuzzFeed's latest article about him. The article alleges that he made unwanted sexual advances toward female journalists from the press corps while possibly being under the influence of alcohol.

When asked by BuzzFeed about these latest allegations he emailed the reporter:

“Your story is factually inaccurate. Be sure before you accuse me of something it’s accurate. And, in these instances you are wrong.”

When asked to clarify what instances or facts were incorrect, he did not specifically point to what was factually incorrect.

Further, Lewandowski said:

“It’s all conjecture. Oh, an anonymous source said I did X? Does that mean I can tweet out 'Mr. Y has had inappropriate relationships with little boys'? Where is the line?”

BuzzFeed is not backing down from its story and seems unfazed by the threat of legal action. Lewandowski is not without his bad press, especially in recent weeks. From his alleged assault on a former Brietbart reporter to this past weekend's alleged video showing him grabbing the collar of a man at a rally, he seems unwilling to avoid bad press.

And let's not forget, he works for one of the most litigious men ever. Donald Trump has never met a lawsuit he didn't like, except perhaps, Trump University.
