Kamala Harris and the Media are Getting Desperate – In The Tank #468

Published October 10, 2024
The Heartland Institute’s Donald Kendal, Jim Lakely, and Justin Haskins present episode 468 of the In The Tank Podcast. As the election approaches, it appears as though the mainstream media industry is desperate to paint Kamala Harris in the best light possible. For example, it appears as though 60 Minutes selectively edited their interview with VP and presidential candidate Kamala Harris to make her come off in as good a light as possible. Simultaneously, the White House Press Secretary accused correspondent Peter Doocy of spreading misinformation for simply asking a question about the Biden Administration’s handling of the response to Hurricane Helene. The ITT crew talks about all this and more on this week’s episode.
