Biden Skips Super Bowl Interview for Second Year in a Row
For the second year in a row, Joe Biden declined to be interviewed before the Super Bowl.
The Super Bowl is scheduled for Sunday, February 11th, and will air on CBS. The matchup will be the San Francisco 49ers and the Kansas City Chiefs.
After CBS recently discussed it with the White House, Biden decided against the interview. This would have given him a very large viewing audience, considering it is the biggest TV event of the year.
There has been a long-time tradition of the President being interviewed by the station airing the big game going back to 2009 with Barack Obama.
Variety reported:
President Joe Biden will not take part in an exchange during the pre-game festivities leading up to CBS’ broadcast of Super Bowl LVIII on February 11,
