The FCC just published CBS’ raw Kamala Harris ‘60 Minutes’ interview
From the Left
AllSides Media Bias Rating: Lean Left
A newly released transcript of a contested interview with former Vice President Kamala Harris refutes President Donald Trump’s assertions that CBS committed “election interference” last October.
The Harris interview led Trump to sue CBS, and a pro-Trump advocacy group filed a formal complaint with the FCC, the federal agency that licenses local TV stations.
CBS had, until recently, refused to publish the full transcript of the Harris interview, creating an information vacuum that helped conspiracy theories to flourish. But the network handed over the transcript and tapes for an FCC inquiry, and on Wednesday the agency released the materials, citing “the value of transparency and the public interest here.”
