Candy Crowley 

The act of stepping in and saying something to try to save your friend in the midst of his or her telling a lie or exaggeration, when in fact you know it's probably wrong and you are supposed to be an unbiased party. Based on TV reporter Candy Crowley's actions in one of the debates of the 2012 presidential election.

Did you see that guy lie/exaggerate to everyone about what really went down? No one was buying it, but then some other guy swooped in and pulled a Candy Crowley, and everyone was like, wow! You know, like when Candy did it for Obama over Benghazi talking points.

Jay Carney 

The act of consistently covering for your boss, friend, or other person, by dodging questions, making excuses, changing the topic, or even exaggerating or lying. The slang term originates from the actions and behaviors of White House Press Secretary Jay Carney for the Obama administration when asked questions on certain topics by reporters.

Person 1: What's the latest on that debacle? What did Mike say?
Person 2: I don't know, Mike pulled a Jay Carney and said it happened a long time ago, as if a few months was a long time ago and now it somehow doesn't matter.
