On dodging the media, Kamala Harris 'owes responses' to the American public, says campaign adviser

A Harris campaign adviser conceded Sunday that Vice President Kamala Harris "owes responses" to the American public about why she has shifted her stance on policies like fracking, adding that she will sit for an interview "before the end of this month."

News of Harris' first formal interview since becoming the Democratic Party's nominee for president came Sunday, during an appearance by Harris' deputy campaign manager, Quentin Fulks, on Fox News's "Media Buzz" with Howie Kurtz. During the discussion, Kurtz pressed Fulks on whether he felt Harris needed to explain to voters why – on issues like fracking and health care – she has backtracked on several of her formerly far-left, progressive stances touted amid Harris' 2020 presidential run.

"Look, I think that the vice president owes responses to the American people," Fulks said. He pointed the finger at former President Trump for stirring up misinformation about Harris' views on topics like fracking and health care. "We're not going to be worried about explaining anything to Donald Trump, or people – the vice president is going to talk to the American people about what her positions are."

Harris has been criticized for failing to take interviews or hold press conferences since becoming the Democratic Party's presumptive nominee over a month ago. The Harris-Walz campaign lacks any information about the pair's policy views on their campaign website as well, and the recent policy platform unveiled by the Democratic National Convention (DNC) cited President Biden and his policies more than it did Harris'.
