Conservative HLN anchor S.E. Cupp landed a rare interview with ousted White House press secretary Sean Spicer, though Cupp's Saturday appearance on CNN may suggest why she was chosen.
"You booked Sean Spicer for January 4th for your show," Brian Stelter noted.
"Yes, for an hour," Cupp replied proudly.
"How did you book him?" Stelter followed-up. "He hasn't been on TV much since leaving the White House."
"He texted me," Cupp explained. "He said, 'your show is great, I really love it. I love the format and the spirit, it's friendly, it's polite, it's civil, but it's interesting.'"
So Cupp invited him on.
"We'll talk about your last year, of course, and I'll probably ask him some tough questions, but then let's move on," Cupp explained.
"I think it's going to be really fun," Cupp predicted.
