Bret Baier, the chief political anchor at Fox News, is set to interview Vice President Kamala Harris on October 16 in Pennsylvania, a key battleground state where she currently leads Donald Trump by 4 percentage points. This interview will be featured during “Special Report with Bret Baier” at 6 p.m. ET and marks Harris’ first formal appearance on the network.
While Harris holds an edge in Pennsylvania, recent polls indicate a tight race, making her television appearances vital as the election approaches. Trump has plans for campaigning in Pennsylvania in the coming weeks, while Harris’ running mate, Governor Tim Walz of Minnesota, is set to appear in Wisconsin.
In addition to her Fox News interview, Harris has been actively engaging with various media outlets. On October 6, she joined Alex Cooper on her popular Spotify podcast “Call Her Daddy,” which is noted as the most listened-to program hosted by a woman on the platform.
Furthermore, Harris will participate in a town hall with Charlamagne Tha God, host of “The Breakfast Club” podcast, on October 16 in Detroit. This event will be streamed live on the iHeartRadio app and will include questions submitted by local voters, aimed at bolstering her narrow lead over Trump in Michigan.
On October 1, Trump canceled his interview with “60 Minutes,” which would have been among his final television appearances prior to the election. After the announcement that both Harris and Trump would appear on the show, Trump’s communication director Steve Cheung took to X to criticize “60 Minutes,” claiming they had a history of misinformation and that no formal interview had been scheduled.
