You Be the Judge: Al Jazeera Reporter Says She Didn't Call Kayleigh McAnany a 'Lying Bitch'

Drama is emerging from White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany's news briefing Tuesday. Reporter Kimberly Halkett got into a heated exchange with McEnany. At the end, after not getting another question in, Twitter concluded Halkett called McEnany a "lying bitch."

Here's the audio:

Halkett quickly pushed back on social media saying she did not call her a "lying bitch." She claimed to instead say, "Okay, you don't want to engage."

"Thanks for asking @charliespiering ... there's a lot of misreporting out there about that briefing,"  Halkett tweeted. "The answer to your question is, I DID NOT. What I said was, "OKAY, YOU DON'T WANT TO ENGAGE."

Here are the few seconds in question, again:
