TIME Magazine owner Marc Benioff has slammed Democratic presidential candidate Vice President Kamala Harris for refusing interview requests with his media outlet. The magazine that was once a powerhouse of influential journalism under Henry Luce, even published a flattering cover of Harris when she was pronounced the Democratic nominee after President Joe Biden was pushed out of the presidential race.
“Despite multiple requests, TIME has not been granted an interview with Kamala Harris — unlike every other Presidential candidate,” Benioff said on X. “We believe in transparency and publish each interview in full. Why isn’t the Vice President engaging with the public on the same level?”
“Harris declined repeated requests for an interview for this story. In contrast, Trump talked about his policy vision with a TIME reporter for 90 minutes across two interviews. Biden spoke to TIME at similar length before dropping out of the race.” https://t.co/5wUbsStjep https://t.co/LpWExppPwb pic.twitter.com/1bvwzSSvbd
