Vice President Kamala Harris and her running mate Tim Walz recently conducted their first interview with CNN, which drew criticism for its perceived lack of depth and focus on contentious issues surrounding Harris's candidacy. The interview, led by Dana Bash, touched on Harris's policy changes and future plans but notably avoided addressing why Harris had delayed interviews as a candidate. Meanwhile, Harris's father, Donald J. Harris, remains a non-figure in her public life despite living close to the White House, raising questions about their relationship. As Harris campaigns, she has managed to reshape her public image, transforming from a perceived underperformer to a charismatic candidate who resonates with voters. In entertainment news, actress Sigourney Weaver expressed pleasure that her groundbreaking role in 'Alien' could have influenced Harris's journey as the first female Vice President, highlighting the impact of female representation in media. The Venice Film Festival honored Weaver with the Golden Lion for Lifetime Achievement, emphasizing the evolving roles for women in Hollywood.
