Former ESPN anchor, Sage Steele, has revealed startling details about her interviews with President Biden, alleging they were scripted. Steele’s admission highlights concerns over media control by Democrats, sparking backlash from conservatives.
The revelation adds to growing scrutiny surrounding Biden’s administration, as critics question the authenticity and transparency of his interactions with the press.
According to The Hill, Sage Steele disclosed that the network mandated her to adhere strictly to a pre-written “script” during her 2021 interview with President Biden.
The interview, focused on the sports industry’s pandemic recovery and vaccination hesitancy among athletes, was closely controlled by ESPN executives, with every question and response scripted meticulously.
Furthermore, Steele emphasized that even follow-up questions were prohibited. While unsure if ESPN shared questions with the White House beforehand, Steele alleged such coordination. ESPN declined to comment
