INTERVIEW – BRIAN STELTER – CNN’s senior media correspondent and host of CNN’s Reliable Sources show
- Trump and frequent target Megyn Kelly call a truce. NEW YORK (AP) — Donald Trump and Megyn Kelly appear to have called a truce. The two sat down for a much-ballyhooed interview that was the culmination — at least for now — of the frequent sparring between the now-presumptive Republican presidential nominee and one of the biggest stars on the conservative-leaning Fox News Channel. It was taped last month and aired Tuesday night on the Fox broadcast network. Their fight began last August, in the first GOP debate, when Kelly lobbed several tough questions at Trump, including one about how he has publicly talked about women. Trump escalated the feud over Twitter for months.
- Megyn Kelly’s Donald Trump interview could be a big moment for both of them. (Brian Stelter/CNN) — Donald Trump and Megyn Kelly both stand to benefit from Tuesday night’s prime time reconciliation. Trump is making peace with a media power player he has relentlessly criticized since last summer, and Kelly is getting a guaranteed ratings boost from the presumptive GOP nominee.The interview is not a debate-style inquisition — it is a more personal look at Trump and his temperament. Kelly has been promoting it for more than a week, but Fox still says there are some surprises in store during the actual broadcast.
