TOLEDO, OH (WTOL) - A YouTube moment for a Toledo Mayoral candidate wound up on CNN Wednesday.
Democratic candidate Ben Konop was heckled recently at a recent campaign news conference by a man who "Booed!" him every time he tried to speak.
Eventually Konop moved to a different area.
The video now posted on YouTube has garnered thousands of views and CNN did a brief story about it Wednesday afternoon.
"It was good video, I guess. It was entertaining to some extent," says Konop. "Although, looking back on it, it's funny for me to watch it. I can see how that would interest people."
Konop says CNN Contacted the campaign and he could be on the news network Thursday to talk about the incident.
Konop says in the past few days he's received e-mails from people across the country saying he handled himself well.
