Biden has frequently exited the podium after speeches and remarks without taking any questions. On 11/2/2021, White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki was challenged over claims President Biden would regularly grant local TV interviews following passage of his infrastructure bill. As one reporter pointed out at Thursday’s press briefing, Biden has only granted one local TV hit since the Nov. 6 vote. Cincinnati’s Local 12 nabbed the president for an interview on Nov. 8, his first local TV interview more than 10 months into his administration.
“You said one of the things the president is doing is local TV interviews — I think he’s only done one so far,” the reporter said to Psaki. “I would very much like that to happen,” Psaki said. “We are always competing with time on the schedule. I’m going to be honest,”
“When a huge group of criminals organizes themselves and they want to go loot a store—a CVS, Nordstrom, a Home Depot — until the shelves are clean, you think that’s because of the pandemic?” Fox News reporter Peter Doocy asked. Psaki: “I think a root cause in a lot of communities is the pandemic, yes.”
A reporter confronts Psaki on Biden’s failure to “shut down” virus as he promised to do a year ago. Psaki says Israel has their “own point of view” on Iran “conducting nuclear blackmail,” Biden supports bill that removes all restrictions on on-demand abortion, “nothing is off the table,” including vax requirement for domestic travel.
