After three weeks, it's now obvious that there's no way the media won't go as far as spreading propaganda on behalf of Kamala Harris, but one major media outlet took its coverage of the supposed chagrin of DEI.
In an article that has been savaged by social media users, the once-beloved Associated Press explained why it is not necessary for Harris, who has yet to hold a press conference since being traded to Joe Biden, to feel forced to submit to reporters' questions. .
“Do you know the press? Hold that thought. The candidate's interview ain't what it used to be,” AP argued as questions continued to mount about why the Democratic Party nominee had not consented to an interview and instead relied on a massive propaganda bombardment to present- to the voters, not as a potential president but as a celebrity.

“This is about to change, now that it has become a campaign issue. But for reporters, the bigger lesson is that their role as presidential gatekeepers is probably forever diminishing,” the author wrote, explaining that Harris will soon have to break his radio silence, but downplaying his need to – it in the future.
The AP published a quote from failed Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney's 2012 communications strategist, who said that for campaign teams, “[T]the goal is to control the message as much as possible.”
“Interviews and press conferences take away that control. Candidates are at the mercy of the questions reporters ask, even if they try to change the subject. The media decides which answers are newsworthy and will be sliced ​​and diced into soundbites that go out on social media, often without the context in which they were uttered,” the article states. “In this environment, the value and perception of the sit-down interview has changed, for both reporters and candidates.”
This is the pathetic state of journalism in modern America.
Reactions to the AP cover for Kamala's invisible woman act were fast and furious.
Imagine being him @AP and present the case against a presidential candidate by answering questions. Beyond shame. https://t.co/XbvITymIkH

“The vice president has not given any interviews and has barely engaged with reporters since becoming the Democratic choice to replace Joe Biden.”
THIS IS NOT GOOD! And it is the job of journalists to say so, to hold politicians accountable. I am ashamed of the profession. https://t.co/HuY9HrbfQy

We're about two weeks away from “candidates' press conferences are a far-right talking point.” https://t.co/FCoh2uvPA7

Of course
Democrats masquerading as reporters must do everything in their power to hide the silly, nonsensical word salad that came out of Kamala's mouth in response to serious questions being asked of her.

Blatant and shameless propaganda. You have destroyed a once respected institution with all this nonsense.

“I've talked to my team. I want to have an interview scheduled before the end of the month,” Harris told reporters in his brief non-response in Michigan on Thursday.
“Only 88 days until the most important election of our lifetime. Why doesn't Kamala hold a press conference and take questions? Former President Donald J. Trump asked in a Friday Truth Social Post.
