Trump Sit-down With Black Journalists. Trump is scheduled to be interviewed on Wednesday afternoon at the event by three Black women journalists, Fox News’ Harris Faulkner, ABC News’ Rachel Scott and Semafor’s Kadia Goba.
Harris, who was invited, could not make it to Chicago in person but is willing to participate in a virtual fireside chat with the organization, according to a person familiar with her plans.
Some NABJ members and members of the media say Trump’s treatment of Black reporters during his presidential term should disqualify him from participating. Others are upset about the timing of the announcement — two days before the five-day convention begins, and as many members were already traveling to Chicago for the event.
We will have more on this later or tomorrow.
