Aide: Trump didn't know interview would be on Russian TV
By Jesse Byrnes
Donald Trump's campaign manager on Friday denied that the Republican presidential nominee willingly appeared on a Russian government-sponsored television network.
"As you know, former CNN superstar Larry King has a podcast and Mr. Trump went on his podcast. Nobody said it was going to be on Russian TV," Kellyanne Conway said on CNN's "New Day."
Conway similarly argued on "CBS This Morning" that Trump did the interview with King, "a personal friend of his," and didn't know where it would be played.
"He was doing it as a favor to his friend Larry King," she said.
