Ex-ESPN host reveals ‘every single question’ in Biden interview was ‘scripted’ by network execs

Former ESPN anchor Sage Steele revealed that her interview with President Joe Biden shortly after he took office in March 2021 was “scripted” by executives at the Disney-owned network.

Steele — who was “sidelined” by ESPN later that year after she criticized the company’s COVID-19 vaccine mandate and made controversial comments about former President Barack Obama — told Fox News that she was beholden to a “structured” interview.

“It was very much ‘This is what you will ask. This is how you will say it. No follow-ups, no follow-ups. Next,'” Steele told Fox, adding that each question was “gone over dozens of times by many editors and executives.”

Already knew that. Biden supporters simply cannot admit that he is unfit cognitively to be President.

The so-called “media” is having nightmares about their boy Bidenskyyyyyyyy getting his ass thrown out in the street in front of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. They say it’s the most horrible thing that could happen to them. Remember the famous old Clintoon saying, “If Trump wins, we’re all gonna hang.”

...and the network exec’s were scripted by the White House and the White House was scripted by the massive left Globalists. Nothing new here.

If Steele were not “sidelined” by ESPN would this even be a story? Seems like she wants to be a stowaway on the MAGA train.

Our local paper runs a ‘Speak Out’ feature where readers can say what’s on their minds. In today’s paper (Southeast Missourian) there is this:

“Unfit for office We have two geriatric candidates for office; one, Biden, has senior moments, the other, Trump, is showing significants signs of cognitive decline and dementia-related signs of aphasia, the inability to recall common words. Trump’s words are often slurred an mangled. His comments are not coherent, he babbles and trails off. Both are too old but one is ‘mentally unfit’ to hold office.”

Whoever sent this in is obviously living in an alternate universe. Biden has ‘senior moments’ but it is Trump who cannot utter complete sentences. A belated Happy Oyster to everyone.

Probably a democrat plant sent in that message to the local paper. It is just a flat out lie.
