Extra: Martha MacCallum On This "Extraordinary" Election

The 2024 presidential race remains neck-and-neck. The latest FOX News poll gives Vice President Kamala Harris a slight edge – but still within the margin of error - over former President Donald Trump. With less than seven weeks before election day, both candidates are blitzing key battleground states. However, unlike Trump, Harris has mostly avoided the media by doing few interviews and not holding traditional news conferences. Earlier this week, FOX News Rundown host Dave Anthony spoke with The Story anchor Martha MacCallum about the state of the 2024 presidential race and both candidates’ media strategies. The FOX News star also discussed the historic nature of this race and the long list of extraordinary events that have taken place in the past few months, including President Biden dropping out of the race and the two assassination attempts on former President Trump. We often must cut interviews short during the week, but we thought you might like to hear the full interview. This week on the FOX News Rundown, we will share our entire interview with FOX News’ Martha MacCallum, and you’ll hear even more of her perspective on this incredible presidential race and what could happen in the coming weeks.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Two Candidates. Two Very Different Media Strategies.

Election Day is getting closer, and the latest national FOX News Poll shows Vice President Kamala Harris with a two-point lead over former President Donald Trump, still within the margin of error. With experts and pundits stressing the 2024 presidential race remains neck-and-neck, voters will be looking to the candidates to hear about solutions to their top issues: economy, immigration, and abortion. Martha MacCallum, anchor and executive editor of The Story with Martha MacCallum, joins the Rundown to break down the current state of the race and the unusual political news cycle that has unfolded this year.The Federal Reserve has cut interest rates by half a basis point, their first time lowering interest rates since the beginning of the pandemic in March 2020. Now, Americans can expect borrowing costs to go down in a few key pain points for consumers: credit card debt, mortgage rates on housing, and even auto and private student loans. U.S. businesses will see benefits too; cheaper borrowing typically encourages companies to hire more and attracts more investors in the stock market. Co-host of The Big Money Show on Fox Business, Brian Brenberg, joins to explain how and when this interest rate cut will be felt by Americans and concerns about a lagging labor market.Plus, commentary from FOX News Contributor and host of the Jason In The House podcast, Jason Chaffetz.Photo Credit: AP Learn more about your ad choices.
