A Daily Caller reporter who interrupted President Barack Obama last week during a speech about the president’s new immigration policy appeared on Fox News to defend his actions.

Neil Munro told Sean Hannity that he thought Obama was mid-sentence when he interrupted him.

“The only way to ask [Obama] a question at these events is to get him at the end as he’s leaving just before he dashes back to the Oval Office…Yes, I mistimed it. I thought I was getting him at the end and frankly, I was wrong about that,” Munro said.

The Huffington Post reports that Hannity then played a clip of reporters interrupting President Ronald Reagan in 1986 during his remarks. Watch the video interview here.
