WASHINGTON — Vice President Kamala Harris is leaning into longer form interviews, where she has more freedom to discuss substantive policy and talk about the issues she is passionate about, as her office attempts to improve her public image and demonstrate that she’s a team player.
In interviews, 11 people familiar with Harris’ operation — some of whom requested anonymity to speak candidly about private conversations — described the effort to reshape the narrative around her vice presidency.
A White House official said that no dramatic shift in direction was underway, even as Harris hired a new communications director and worked to fill other high-level press and public relations positions.
