Democratic vice-presidential candidate Gov. Tim Walz (D-MN) was in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania to talk to party volunteers – but not to reporters, who were reportedly told to “not disrupt the program.”
Tim Carney posted on X: “Reporters keep not minding their own damn business, I guess" in response to a Facebook post from Allyssa Krantz a WPMT Fox 43, reporter who was at the event in Pennsylvania and posted that Walz was not taking questions and that reporters were instructed to not ask questions.
Carney was referring to a Facebook post from Allyssa Krantz a WPMT Fox 43 reporter who was at the event in Pennsylvania.
“Gov. Tim Walz speaking to people calling into Lancaster County Democratic committee field office. His daughter, Hope, is with him. Spoke to supporters here for about six or seven minutes. Waltz is not taking questions from the media while here. We were also not allowed to put microphones up by Gov. Watz while he was speaking. One reporter tried shouting a question and we were told "to not disrupt the program" WPMT Fox 43.”
In a video of the event from WGAL, Walz can be seen talking to the volunteers about the Georgia school shooting, saying “Our hearts are out there right now.” A reporter states that he did not take questions.
Walz described getting out the vote on election day as “One phone call at a time” while he described the Democratic Party election platform as “reproductive health care, building public schools, good infrastructure or creating jobs.”
Both Democratic presidential candidate Vice President Kamala Harris and Walz have been criticized for not providing the media any opportunity for interviews. Harris and Walz sat for a pre-recorded question and answer session with CNN’s Dana Bash that was highly controlled. A CNN contributor described Walz as an “emotional support animal” for the vice president.
Critics have castigated Walz for lying about his military career and for his adoration of Maoist China as a younger teacher.
