The scandal engulfing CBS' 60 Minutes over its edited interview with
Kamala Harris has turbocharged fears that the
Democrat is being shepherded into the
White House by a liberal media increasingly desperate to cover for her shortcomings.
Apart from
glowing magazine profiles and
softball interviews with handpicked reporters, the VP has largely
side-stepped the media exposure that candidates traditionally allow.
But the CBS debacle
has crystalized fears that a supine media is conspiring with her evasion in its
determination not to allow what happened to Biden, to happen to her.
It was July 24 that Harris announced her candidacy to succeed her boss in the White House but more than a month before she granted her first sit-down interview, choosing CNN for a half-hour chat and
bringing along her VP pick Tim Walz for support.
Bash, a CNN loyalist who has worked at the liberal network since graduating from college, was accused of failing to land any major blows.
Daily Mail columnist Andrew Neil said Harris was 'let off the hook on her part in the cover up of
Biden's cognitive decline' and added that CNN gave a 'master class on how not to hold politicians to account'.
And her boutique approach to granting interviews saw her pick influencers over reporters as she eschewed hostile scrutiny.
The presidential race has been dogged by allegations of media bias since the moment Harris unseated Joe Biden as the Democrat pick in the wake of his disastrous debate with Donald Trump in June
