White House Declines CBS News Request For Joe Biden Super Bowl Interview

The White House has declined CBS News‘ request for a sit down interview with President Joe Biden tied to the Super Bowl, the network confirmed.

This will mark the second year in a row that the White House has bypassed an interview, which had become a tradition as it reaches such a huge audience. CBS has the rights to the Feb. 11 event between the Kansas City Chiefs and the San Francisco 49ers.

Last year, the White House declined a Fox News request for an interview when Fox had the rights to the big game. Variety first reported on the declined request.

A White House spokesperson did not immediately respond to a request for commemt.

More to come.
