Vice President Kamala Harris’ deputy campaign manager admitted there is zero value in Democrats talking to outlets like The New York Times (NYT) and The Washington Post (WaPo) because those outlets are already in the tank for the party.
Rob Flaherty told Semafor’s Max Tani that the Harris campaign decided to skip interviews with major corporate press outlets because data showed readers of outlets like the NYT and WaPo already supported Harris.
“There’s just no value — with respect to my colleagues in the mainstream press — in a general election, to speaking to the New York Times or speaking to the Washington Post, because those [readers] are already with us,” Flaherty said.
