Dr. Mehmet Oz, a Pennsylvania Senate Republican candidate, is at the center of a new controversy for using a Black campaign aide as part of a publicity stunt.
The photo circulating is said to have been taken at a "community discussion" held back in September. In the photo, Oz appears to be comforting a Black woman, identified Sheila Armstrong, who is billed as a supporter of his campaign. It was also portrayed this way in the initial report published by The Associated Press.
