    Fox News highlighted the dramatic disparity in the number of interviews,
    press conferences, and general media availability of the Republican presidential ticket versus the Democratic presidential ticket — and the
    results were not even close.

    The outlet shared data published on Thursday morning by Axios under the headline “The Harris-Walz media strategy: Hide from the press.” Counting the total number of interviews and press interactions allowed thus far by Vice President Kamala Harris and her running mate Governor Tim Walz (D-MN) — and weighing those against the time remaining until Election Day on November 5 — Axios reported, “The Harris-Walz ticket is on pace to do fewer interviews and press conferences than any major party’s presidential pairing in modern U.S. history.”

    According to the Axios report — which only covered media access since
    President Joe Biden exited the presidential race on July 21 — Harris has only done one local interview and Walz has done three. In comparison, former President Donald Trump has done seven and his running mate, Senator JD Vance (R-OH), has done 15.

    The Democratic ticket did not fare much better when it came to other media formats, either. Harris, for example, has done just one interview for a print publication and one national television interview — a pre-recorded interview with CNN’s Dana Bash — and despite calls for her to hold an official press conference, her tally remains at zero. Walz sat in on the CNN interview with Harris, but has done no press conferences and no print interviews whether
    alone or alongside Harris.

    On the flip side, Trump has done one print interview, two national television interviews, and three formal press conferences — more than Harris and Walz combined. Vance bested even Trump with eight print interviews, 24 national television appearances, and 12 press conferences.

    I wasn't a big fan of Vance when I heard he'd been picked but no
    question he's pulled his weight with the news media. (I remain on my
    local library's hold queue for Hillbilly Elegy - which I am interested
    in more for curiousity than his politics)
