Trump to Hold Sinclair Town Hall Moderated by Fox News Alum Eric Bolling

The Sinclair Broadcast Group will hold a town hall with President Donald Trump next Wednesday, one day before the final presidential debate.

The event will be taped at the White House and moderated by Eric Bolling, the former Fox News host who left the network amid sexual harassment allegations in 2017. Bolling is now host of “America This Week,” Sinclair’s weekly show that airs on Wednesday nights.

“We aim to give Sinclair viewers the answers to their most burning questions and look forward to getting a detailed view on what the next four years would look like under President Trump,” Bolling said in a statement.

In July, “America This Week” came under fire for scheduling an interview with Judy Mikovits, a researcher who had appeared to accuse Dr. Anthony Fauci of helping to create the coronavirus. Under pressure, Sinclair dropped plans to air the interview.

Bolling will interview Trump and also take questions from the audience, similar to the format used in Thursday’s town halls with Trump and Joe Biden on NBC and ABC, respectively. The hourlong program will start at 8 p.m.

Sinclair will air the event across all of its CW and MyNet stations, which operate in 55 local markets across the country. The town hall will also be broadcast on the Sinclair station websites.

The station group said it had extended a similar offer to Biden’s campaign.

PLEASE Eric, don’t feel like you have to be “fair”.

This is the only shot Trump has at saying what he want without a thousand interruptions or being asked absurd questions.

I am confident he will do the right thing though.

BTW, prayers out to Eric. You move on but I can’t imagine you ever get over your child’s death.

Nope.
That was no townhall.
The NBC shrew asked 45 nasty questions plus countless interruptions, while the members of the audience who were supposed to do the questioning only asked 8 questions.

I don’t mind tough questions. There are some issues that should be answered. However, this constant “Do you denounce White Supremacy?” crap has to stop.

Perhaps they will ask Biden questions like if he enjoys fluffy puppies

Eric will be more than fair!
Melania Trump helped him get the word out about drugs, after his son’s death.

Me, too, as I have no clue what those sites are, CW and the other noted in the article. I wonder if You Tube will broadcast it?

Is Sinclair a TV/cable channel, or streaming? Never heard of it before.

Sinclair owns many (100+) TV stations across the USA, with different network affiliations.

Town Hall will be on CW and MyNet stations.

MyNet is usually a side channel running a lot of old Law & Order episodes.

No ones been more critical of Guthrie than I but I will say that both get treated the same, then fine. It’s Trump being drawn and quartered while Biden get a tongue bath that I object to most

I hope this subs on YouTube for his regular show.
We get the CW here, but it’s not a huge nationwide market.
I’m confident Eric will do a good job, especially if he watched Savannah “Call the exorcist” Guthrie the other night.

The Sinclair Broadcast Group

Where will this town hall be shown? I've never understood where to find "The Sinclair Broadcast Group" network or networks.

I still can't find Sheryl Attkisson's "Sinclair Network" show anywhere on television.
