Fox News has just invited both President Trump and Kamala Harris participate in a final debate and it would take place later this month.
Here’s the news:
FOX News Media made a final pitch to host a debate between Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump on Wednesday, sending letters to each campaign.
FOX News Media executives sent a letter to the Harris and Trump campaigns offering to host another debate in Pennsylvania on either October 24 or 27, with Bret Baier and Martha MacCallum as moderators.
“This would present an opportunity for each candidate to make his or her closing arguments,” FOX News Media president & Executive Editor Jay Wallace and Vice President of Politics Jessica Loker wrote.
Wallace and Locker also pointed out that New York Times opinion senior editor David Swerdlick called for Harris to debate Trump on Fox News in a piece published on Tuesday.
Fox News’ proposed criteria and format mirrors those of the CNN debate in June and September’s ABC showdown.
Fox News proposed a 90-minute debate with two commercial breaks, with only Baier and MacCallum asking questions. A coin flip would determine podium placement and order of closing statements. Candidates would stand behind podiums without any props or pre-written notes and there would be no live audience.
The letter to each campaign also detailed Fox News Channel’s success in the ratings department, indicating that a massive audience would tune in ahead of the critical election.
I seriously doubt Kamala will accept this because she prefers friendly garbage media networks and she considers Fox News to be the enemy.
But on the flip side, she said she wanted to do another debate with Trump and this is her opportunity to wrangle him in for a second debate because he’ll likely say yes.
This offer for a debate by Fox News calls her bluff. If she really wants one, she’ll say yes to this. But we all know she won’t.
