2nd local radio host says they were given questions ahead of Biden interview

Earl Ingram, a Wisconsin radio host with CivicMedia, disclosed to ABC News that he received a list of questions in advance of his interview with President Joe Biden.

Ingram, who interviewed Biden following a recent debate, confirmed he was provided five questions and managed to ask four of them during the interview.

This revelation marks the second instance this week where a local radio host reported being given questions by Biden’s aides ahead of their interview.

Ingram told ABC he didn’t see anything necessarily wrong with the practice. “To think that I was gonna get an opportunity to ask any question to the President of the United States, I think, is a bit more than anybody should expect,” he said.

Biden campaign spokesperson Lauren Hitt responded to Lawful-Sanders by stating that it’s common for interview subjects to suggest preferred topics, ABC News has reported.

Hitt emphasized that Lawful-Sanders had the freedom to ask any questions she chose.

She clarified that it was the campaign, not the White House as reported elsewhere, that provided the questions for the interview.
