Up Close with Bill Ritter

De: WABC-TV Bill Ritter
  • Resumen

  • “Up Close” is a politics podcast from the No. 1 TV station in the United States, WABC-TV. Hosted by Eyewitness News veteran anchor Bill Ritter, Up Close gets to the heart of the matter, whether it’s about how things are working in government - or how they’re not working. It shows you how public-policy decisions are made. This Eyewitness News podcast goes beyond the headlines and underneath the surface of politics. Sound bites don’t do that – conversation does. Our guests – varied and diverse - are from both sides of the aisle. In addition to full episodes of Up Close, I'm going to be sharing extra content -- interviews, perspective, news digests and more.

    With just 100 days until Election Day, the 2024 presidential race is on and heating up. In this edition of Eyewitness News Up Close, we discuss the race between former president and Republican nominee Donald Trump against presumptive Democratic nominee Kamala Harris. There has been no shortage of attacks and vitriol in what promises to be a tough campaign, to put it politely. It will also be the shortest presidential race in modern history. We talk with New Jersey Democratic Congressman Josh Gottheimer and the head of the Republican Party in New York, Ed Cox. Plus, ABC News Political Director Rick Klein and political consultant Hank Sheinkopf weigh in on the race for the White House. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

    In this edition of Up Close, we discuss the race for the White House and where Donald Trump and President Joe Biden stand, and sit down with FDNY Commissioner Laura Kavanagh in her first television interview since announcing she's stepping down. Former President Trump accepted his party's nomination for another run at the White House. Trump said he rewrote the speech after the assassination attempt. So, what did we learn from his speech? Bill Ritter spoke to Republican Congresswoman Nicole Malliotakis, who gave her take on Trump at the Republican National Convention. For the Democratic perspective, Bill also spoke to Congressman Dan Goldman of New York. And in her first television interview after announcing she is stepping down as the New York City's first woman fire commissioner, Bill spoke to Laura Kavanagh, who answered the obvious question: "why are you leaving?"
