Steve Harvey: Trump would get questions in advance, too
Talk show host Steve Harvey on Thursday said if Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump came on his show, he too would be provided with questions in advance.
{mosads}A memo leaked earlier this week showed that Hillary Clinton was provided with the questions she would be asked by the daytime talk show host ahead of her interview earlier this year.
“I’m not an investigative reporter. Everyone on my show including @HillaryClinton is produced by a segment producer, like most talk shows,” Harvey tweeted Thursday.
1/ I’m not an investigative reporter. Everyone on my show including @HillaryClinton is produced by a segment producer, like most talk shows.

2/ And I’m a @HillaryClinton supporter. However I welcome @realDonaldTrump to be on my show. If he does accept, he’ll get the questions too.

The Washington Free Beacon reported earlier this week that the program sent the Clinton campaign all questions one week ahead of the February interview between Clinton and Harvey.
The publication cited a leaked memo it had obtained.
“Steve is known to be a host who goes out of his way to make his guests feel comfortable,” two of Clinton’s aides wrote Clinton one week before the taping.
“We coordinated closely with the show’s producers on the script and format of the show.”
