evidence: With so much going her way, Harris’ decision to hold off on any major interviews is prudent — at least for the moment. [...] In no way is this a defense of Harris for not facing tough questions from the media, but the smart move is to set the narrative at the convention — and then consider a major interview or press conference. Harris has already said she plans on giving an interview by the end of the month. [...] In a piece for The Daily Beast, David Rothkopf wrote, "You have seen so-called pundits pick up on the silly assertions of JD Vance that Harris is not speaking to the media even though she has been on constant public display ever since her candidacy began. She has given many addresses during that time, she has spoken to the press frequently — as her opponent has been hunkered down doing precious little except posting nutty conspiracy theories on social media, lying at a rate worthy of an Olympic medal during one interview with a friendly journalist, and ranting about things that did not happen with people who did not do them."
