Former Vice President Joe Biden is set to break his silence Friday morning after his former Senate staffer Tara Reade ignited a political firestorm last month by alleging he sexually assaulted her.
The presumptive 2020 Democratic presidential nominee will appear on MSNBC's “Morning Joe” and is expected to face questions about the accusations. Biden managed to avoid any questions from roughly a dozen televised interviews since Reade claimed March 25 that her former boss molested her in 1993.
Anchors including ABC News' George Stephanopoulos, NBC News' Chuck Todd and CNN's Anderson Cooper -- who interviewed the former vice president twice since Reade came forward -- failed to ask Biden about the claims. For weeks, only the Biden campaign has responded to the controversy to various media outlets, vehemently denying Reade's story.
"What is clear about this claim: It is untrue. This absolutely did not happen," Biden Deputy Campaign Manager Kate Bedingfield said. Click here for more.
