    This isn’t unusual, and I’m pretty tired of this campaign of making everyday and benign occurrences with Biden appear like crises.

    Cut it out.

      It is usually the other way around, the interviewer may provide a list of the questions, not the other way around.

      They didn’t want Biden speaking off script, it’s a big enough train wreck on one.

      And if you don’t like it you should have pushed your party to primary him, this is the Biden they’ve known about for years.

      “The interview featured pre-determined questions provided by the White House, which violates our practice of remaining an independent media outlet accountable to our listeners. As a result, Ms. Lawful-Sanders and WURD Radio have mutually agreed to part ways, effective immediately,” the station said in a statement.

      exactly. Nobody goes into an interview (especially a live interview) without some agreement on what the conversation will cover.

      That’s practically asking to get ambushed.
