Kamala Harris Campaign Criticized for Allegedly Spending $100,000 on Podcast Set
Alex Cooper, host of 'Call Her Daddy,' questions the reported cost of the set built for her interview with the vice president, calling it excessive and unnecessary.
- Reports claim the Harris campaign spent over $100,000 to build a replica of the 'Call Her Daddy' podcast studio for an October interview in Washington, D.C.
- Alex Cooper, the podcast's host, expressed disbelief at the reported cost, stating her own Los Angeles studio does not cost six figures to maintain.
- The Harris campaign has not dismissed the figure, with campaign Chairwoman Jen O'Malley Dillon defending the expenditure as part of voter outreach efforts.
- Harris's appearance on the podcast, focused on abortion and women's rights, faced criticism for being a perceived 'softball' interview that failed to resonate with voters.
- The campaign's spending decisions have drawn scrutiny following Harris's loss to Donald Trump, whose appearances on popular podcasts like 'The Joe Rogan Experience' were praised for engaging male voters.
