Kamala Harris and Tim Walz Criticized for Scripted Interview Amid Campaign

The Democratic candidates shared a staged conversation online, drawing backlash for avoiding traditional media interactions.

Harris and Walz posted a video of a scripted interview reminiscing about their campaign partnership.
The clip showed Harris calling Walz to ask him to be her running mate, which he initially missed.
Conservative commentators criticized the video as inauthentic and evasive.
The video received nearly two million views but was widely mocked on social media.
Harris's campaign has focused on relatability and social media engagement.
