Baker responds to FOX25 interview attack ad against Gov. Patrick

Baker recently joined the FOX25 Morning News to talk about the plan he’s laying out. FOX25’s Gene Lavanchy also got Baker’s response to a recent ad controversy involving his campaign.

An attack ad was released last Thursday by Baker that made it look like Governor Deval Patrick was evading questions during a live FOX25 interview on Tuesday, provoking claims of lies and distortion by Patrick's campaign. In fact, Governor Patrick couldn't hear most of the questions due to audio problems.

Governor Deval Patrick called opponent Charlie Baker's most recent ad "juvenile" .
