Seattle Mayor Katie Wilson met with reporters for her first periodic off-topic media session, 284 days into her tenure. The meeting opened a forum for questions about matters Seattle residents want addressed.
Wilson has faced criticism over her transparency, particularly after the Bite of Seattle shooting. A reporter asked why she was beginning regular off-topic sessions at this point in her term.
The mayor started to answer, then restarted her response. No fuller explanation of her decision is available in the published excerpt.
