NextImg:Fox News proposes September presidential debate to Trump and Harris - Washington Examiner

Fox News executives have sent letters to former President Donald Trump’s and Vice President Kamala Harris’s campaigns requesting to host a presidential debate on Sept. 17 in Pennsylvania.

The network said it is open to negotiating the date, format, and place but proposed anchors Bret Baier and Martha MacCallum moderate the debate. The network decided to amend its proposal because of Harris’s inclusion in the race.

“Now that Vice President Kamala Harris is the presumptive Democratic nominee, FOX News Media is amending our proposal for a debate this cycle. Given the race has changed, we’d like to request the opportunity to host a Presidential Debate between VP Harris and former President Trump,” the letters sent to each campaign, signed by Fox News Media President and Executive Editor Jay Wallace and Fox News Vice President of Politics Jessica Loker, stated. 

Trump recently pushed for the network to host the next presidential debate over ABC, which had one scheduled for Sept. 10 when President Joe Biden was still the nominee. Trump had agreed to the debate with Biden, and on Tuesday said he was willing to debate Harris but he didn’t want to do it any longer on ABC News.

Trump debated Biden on June 27, an event hosted by CNN, in what would turn out to be a catastrophic move for the latter’s campaign. Biden dropped out of the race less than a month after the debate, which had many Democrats lamenting the president’s lack of ability to dissuade age-related concerns Republicans have held for a while about Biden.

The Washington Examiner reached out to the Harris and Trump campaigns for their reaction to the letter but did not receive a response.
