| Description | White House press secretary Jay Carney criticized press reports Tuesday that said donors in Boston booed the president when he made a joke about the Red Sox's trade of popular third baseman Kevin Youkilis.
Carney insisted the donors weren't booing President Obama but were offering the traditional Fenway Park cheer for their departing corner infielder, who was traded to the Chicago White Sox.
"Anyone who knows Boston, knows the Red Sox and anyone who was in that room last night knows that the preponderance of people shouting in response to what the president said about Kevin Youkilis were saying ‘Yoooook' and not 'Booo,’ for God’s sake,” Carney said.
