Given the Super Bowl's massive cultural relevance, the interview is always one of the most-watched political interviews of a given year, even though it tends to air hours before the big game itself. Trump himself continued that tradition (though he skipped it in 2018, when NBC News had the game, amid a feud with the network). President Biden also skipped a couple of Super Bowl interviews, declining to speak with CBS in 2024, and Fox in 2023 (that became an entire media story in and of itself). NBC last had the game in 2022, and Biden spoke to Lester Holt that year for an interview. Last year, just weeks after his inauguration, Trump sat down with Fox News anchor Bret Baier at Mar-a-Lago. Trump, of course, relishes his clashes with the media, frequently talking to the press in less formal settings (like scrums on Air Force One or before events) and in formal interviews. He spoke to CBS Evening News anchor Tony Dokoupil last month.
