A Philadelphia radio host has parted ways with her station after interviewing President Biden with questions provided by his campaign, a move prohibited by many newsrooms including her own.
Andrea Lawful-Sanders is one of two journalists — both hosts of Black radio shows in critical swing states — who acknowledged over the weekend that the Biden camp had fed them questions for interviews earlier in the week.
Their admissions come at a time when the president is already facing heightened scrutiny and trying to do damage control following his shaky performance in last month’s debate against former President Donald Trump.
Lawful-Sanders hosted The Source on WURD Radio, an independent Black-owned talk radio station serving Philadelphia. She spoke to Biden on July 3, in what the station called his first media appearance since the debate.
