A Milwaukee radio station agreed to make two edits to an interview it recorded with President Joe Biden earlier this month at the request of his campaign, the station’s owner, Civic Media, said Thursday. The July 3 interview with WAUK-AM host Earl Ingram was one of Biden’s first media engagements following his poor performance at the June 27 CNN Presidential Debate. The revelations of the requested edits come as the press corps, frustrated by how the White House has handled their questions about Biden’s health and acuity, is about to face Biden for the first time since the debate at a press conference Thursday during the NATO summit. On Thursday, Civic Media, a Wisconsin-based radio network, posted the edited clips and the entire unedited interview on its website. The edited clips, it said, included Biden saying: “…and in addition to that, I have more Blacks in my administration than any other president, all other presidents combined, and in major positions, cabinet positions.” Another clip included the removal of a reference to former President Donald Trump’s call for the death penalty for the so-called Central Park Five. “I don’t know if they even call for their hanging or not, but he–but they said (…) convicted of murder,” Biden said.
