An Atlanta (GA) radio host who interviewed Donald Trump on his show was told by Trump's campaign that he was not allowed to ask questions about policy. “So he wouldn’t let you ask him anything about his platforms running for president,” co-host Cheryl White asked host Steve McCoy, who interviewed Trump. “No, cause he said those policies -- well he didn’t say it, his handlers said -- the policies aren’t set in stone yet and I guess we can kind of understand that, they got a year to go,” McCoy said after the interview.

As BuzzFeed first reported, Trump's campaign called McCoy prior to the interview and said they had the right to nix questions they didn't agree with. “It came with some restrictions: I couldn’t ask anything about his current policies,” McCoy said. “And they had the right to x out any questions that I did ask and we got through about three minutes of it.”
