White House Press Secretary Admits Never Passed Bar Exam, Misstated China Credential

White House press secretary Katie Zacharia admitted she never passed the California bar exam, contradicting her earlier claim of passing one 'when I moved to China.' The admission follows scrutiny of her credentials and a separate false claim that China has no bar exam. This is a credibility issue for the administration, though it does not directly affect policy.
