Kamala Harris gives first formal sit-down interview with Fox News

Vice President Kamala Harris has agreed to her first official sit-down interview with Fox News.

According to the right-wing news channel, the interview will take place on Wednesday in Pennsylvania with Fox News chief political anchor Bret Baier. It will then air that evening at 6:00 pm ET during “Special Report with Bret Baier.”

Although Harris was criticized for avoiding interviews early in her candidacy, the Democratic presidential candidate has recently been in the hot seat with various hosts on a variety of shows, from CNN’s “60 Minutes” and CBS News to “The Shade Room.” ” and other “The Howard Stern Show.”

Harris has so far distanced herself from Fox News, which has leaned heavily toward explicitly supporting her opponent, former President Donald Trump.

The Republican presidential candidate criticized the network on his Truth Social following the announcement of the Harris interview. He said interviews on Fox News aren’t worth it because “everything, on average, leads to NOTHING” and said the network has “completely lost its bearings”! Trump also said that Fox News has “become weak and soft on Democrats and continually pollutes the airwaves with unfettered Kamala representatives.”

Fox News is expected to air a town hall program early Wednesday at 11 a.m. ET in which Trump will respond to questions from an all-female audience. This event is scheduled to take place on Tuesday.

Harris’ foray into Fox News may come as a surprise to the conservative-leaning network – which hasn’t had a formal meeting with a Democratic presidential candidate since Hilary Clinton in 2016 – but the move into adversarial territory has become more plausible in recent months, especially since more party members did so first. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg even introduced himself at the Democratic National Convention as someone attendees might “recognize” from Fox News based on his recent regular appearances. And Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, Harris’ running mate, has appeared on the network twice since joining her campaign.
