Biden Set to Finally Answer Questions...But There's a Catch

It's been 96 days since President Joe Biden held a formal press conference with reporters. 

In the weeks since, he's taken few questions. After making major announcements from

 the White House, he's repeatedly turned his back on Americans and walked away from

 the lectern.

On Thursday, Biden is set to participate in a CNN town hall.

"President Joe Biden will participate in a CNN town hall on Thursday in Baltimore, 

where he'll take questions as his administration continues to sell his ambitious legislative

 agenda to members of Congress and the nation," CNN announced Tuesday. "CNN anchor 

Anderson Cooper will moderate the live broadcast event, which will air at 8 p.m. ET 

on CNN and last 90 minutes."

But there's a catch. All of the participants and questions will be pre-screened.

"A CNN spokesperson said an invitation-only audience will be present at the town 

hall and the network will follow all local and state Covid-19 guidance and regulations 

to ensure a safe event. The town hall's location will be announced in the coming days,"

 the announcement continues.

The news of the event has sparked criticism of Biden's lack of interviews with other 

networks, journalists and even opinion columnists.
