Trump 'abruptly cancels' yet another mainstream media interview

Former President Donald Trump has backed out of yet another interview with a mainstream media outlet.

The Daily Beast reported that Trump "abruptly" canceled a planned interview with CNBC's "Squawk Box" on Tuesday despite the fact that one of the show's hosts, Joe Kernen, is conservative-leaning.

"The interview had not previously been announced by either side," the publication writes. "Sources told the Daily Beast that the network had invited Trump to an in-studio sit-down on Squawk Box to take place later this week and that his campaign had initially accepted."

Trump also abruptly backed out of a planned interview with CBS News' "60 Minutes" and he has been generally sticking to interviews with MAGA-friendly commentators such as Fox Business's Maria Bartiromo and assorted right-wing podcasters.

In addition to this, Trump has been ramping up his attacks on Fox News for not being completely obsequious in its coverage of him, going so far as to chide the network for inviting on Democratic operatives.

Vice President Kamala Harris, in contrast, announced this week that she will sit down for an interview with Fox News' Bret Baier.
