Fox News anchor Harris Faulkner, who moderated the Q&A session at the National Association of Black Journalists (NAJB) Conference on Wednesday, observed that most of the audience actually seemed to be enjoying hearing from former President Donald Trump, despite some criticism that may have suggested the opposite.
Faulkner conversed with Martha McCallum after Trump’s Q&A session. She reported that many “young journalists” at the event were actually quite “glad” that the former president decided to participate in the event.
PRESIDENT TRUMP SHOWS UP!

“What I loved about what you couldn’t see today was how much of that audience was enjoying the moment of hearing from a candidate that they might not always agree with — and that is the whole point,” Faulkner said.
“So for all of that pushback, young journalists that I’m talking to after the event are saying, ‘Well, we’re glad he’s here,’” she continued.
After asking Trump to address concerns about his appearance on stage and confronting him about remarks he’s made about black leaders in the past, ABC News reporter Rachel Scott set off an explosive Q&A session that led to a testy exchange with Trump.
