CNN's "media analyst" warns that Bret Baier "has a history of appeasing Fox's Trump-supporting audience."

Huh. Does CNN have a similar habit of appeasing its cuckoo-for-cross-sex-hormones audience?

You won't read about that here. This is by Noted Arbiter of Media Ethics Brian Stelter.

Fox News anchor Bret Baier is all too keenly aware that Fox's viewers want him to affirm what they already feel.

This week, he is under pressure as he prepares for a high-stakes interview with Vice President Kamala Harris -- the Democratic nominee for president's first-ever formal interview on the right-wing cable network.

Fox is effectively a television extension of Donald Trump's campaign. Hour after hour, conservative talking heads pummel Harris and promote Trump with little regard for the facts. Analysts have described the vice president's appearance on Fox as a surprising visit to "enemy territory."

Baier has tried to position himself above that partisan fray as "fair, balanced and unafraid," as he says in his sign-off every night.

But a review of Baier's emails and comments during the 2020 election aftermath suggests otherwise. And his recent social media activity shows that he is supremely aware of the Fox base's extreme disdain for Harris and distrust of the media.

The interview will run on Fox News starting at 6pm Eastern, though it will be taped an hour earlier at around 5pm. Fox reports:
"We are going to run it uninterrupted, unedited, all the way," Baier said on the eve of the interview.
