The Milwaukee radio station that agreed to take questions from the Biden campaign before its interview with the president admitted on Thursday that it edited parts of the interview before it aired—at the campaign’s request.
Civic Media said it found out on Monday that parts of the interview were edited, saying in a statement that producers agreed to remove two parts of the interview that they viewed as “non-substantive.” The interview with host Earl Ingram was taped on July 3 and aired on July 4, with the parts removed.
The news was first reported by the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. When reached by phone briefly on Thursday, Ingram promised The Daily Beast a call back, but he then ignored further follow-ups.
