Set your alarm clock! Set your DVR! With Hillary's book set to debut in just days, she is about to launch a series of TV appearances starting with an interview with Jane Pauley on CBS's Sunday Morning. Check your local listings.
With a new book to promote, Hillary Clinton is preparing to re-enter the public eye. Her first stop: a sit-down with Jane Pauley on "CBS Sunday Morning" this coming weekend.
It will be Clinton's first television interview since the 2016 presidential campaign, and the first interview about her memoir, "What Happened," a retrospective on her failed White House bid that will officially hit shelves next week.
For Pauley and CBS, the booking is a coup. Clinton has mostly kept a low profile since her stunning loss to Donald Trump last year. She's been photographed on walks through the woods and in other random locations, but her interactions with the media have been limited.
Clinton did give an interview to New York Magazine in May in which she called the election night loss to Trump "a crushing, devastating blow." Read more >>>>
Just my opinion: Jane conducted the best of the network
interviews so far. I may be biased because she prepped the way I would
have and came with notes printed in large font which I also would have
done. Using Hillary's famous commencement speech as a basis for her
questions, she conducted the interview at Wellesley during Alumni
Weekend. Here are a few clips.
The
days of calling Hillary Clinton "Madam Secretary" are over. Now, the
question is whether she's again contemplating a run for an even more
august title. You no doubt have heard about her new book "Hard Choices"
(published by CBS' Simon and Schuster). Several days ago the former
first lady sat down with our Jane Pauley for some Questions and
Answers...
Beneath the tower of Green Hall, by the shores of
Lake Waban, Wellesley College alumnae returned last weekend to their
alma mater -- among them, former first lady, U.S. Senator and Secretary
of State Hillary Clinton, Class of 1969.
She laughed as she recognized photos of herself from when she was 21 ("Oh my gosh. Yes. Boy, I had long, long hair."
"What are you laughing at?" asked Pauley.
"I'm laughing at my gestures."
And
the pants? "You know what, I have to tell you -- I've never been a
fashion icon, in case you haven't noticed, but this was a particularly
bad choice."
Many of us had long hair then, and I had those pants. I wore
them to death because my friend Maria said they made me look "long."
Being vertically challenged, I found that a fashion "do."
For the record: I still call her Madame Secretary.
