At least one reporter has noted that Sen. Kamala Haris has now officially taken more questions from the cast of Marvel’s “Avengers” movies than she has from the press traveling with her.
Harris and the Biden campaign held an online fundraiser for Harris’s birthday. The festivities included appearances from the blockbuster Marvel franchise, and included some “fluff” questions from the cast.
Here’s the tweet from ABC News’s Jonathan Karl marking the occasion.
Our Take…
Yeah, it sounds bad. But in all honesty, Harris is doing her job – avoiding the pitfalls of opening her mouth to say anything important.
However, it really does sound bad… for the press, that is.
But, truthfully, does it really matter that Harris is ignoring the press? As noted here on several occasions, many in the media live in their own alternate universe. It’s not like they’re asking her or Joe Biden any hard or probing questions. Frankly, we agree with these tweets.
It’s amazing that ABC News, headed by George Stefanopoulos, has the nerve to bring this up while, at the same time, holding a Biden town hall full of fluff. That included allowing a former Obama speech writer ask a question under the guise of an undecided voter.
Than again, who’s to say that the media would do anything of import, given the opportunity to ask questions, anyway?
Here’s a question they could ask.
I’m sure we’d all love to know the answers they would offer.
