Vice President Kamala Harris’ sit-down with Fox News’ Bret Baier wasn’t an interview; it was a competition. Harris’ goal seemed to be making it through the 30-minute conversation without meandering too often into nondescript word salad answers. That Baier treated Trump’s remark Wednesday morning as believable and an appropriate counter to Harris’ statement is journalistic malpractice. But compare the intensity of his questioning and fact-checking of Harris against the interview Baier conducted with Trump in June 2023. When Harris noted that former Trump administration officials have said Trump is unfit for office, Baier basically acted like a Trump campaign surrogate.
