Why you haven’t seen a sit-down Biden interview yet
The new president is most definitely not his predecessor, especially when it comes to media presence.

Why you haven’t seen a sit-down Biden interview yet - POLITICO
31 Jan 2021 ~~ By Christopher Cadelago & Sam Mintz
Joe Biden waited nearly four decades to become the most powerful man in the free world. Now that he is, he’s making himself scarce.
Biden is leaning on doctors and health experts to publicly detail his Covid policy. He’s relying on his Cabinet, economic advisers and other high-ranking administration officials to help sell his nearly $2 trillion rescue package. Biden’s press team, meanwhile, is standing in for their boss by blanketing TV programs with pledges to tell the truth even when it’s inconvenient. It’s one of the more arresting shifts after four years of a president who delighted in torturing the media with sudden pronouncements that often surprised and befuddled his own advisers.

As main protagonists go, Biden’s role has been comparatively limited — a startling contrast to the omnipresent president who preceded him. Donald Trump didn’t so much love the spotlight as he sought to totally consume it. Whether he was sending Twitter screeds at all hours or shouting answers over the ear-splitting blades of his presidential aircraft, Trump craved media attention like no American leader before him.

Some, including people close to Biden, say while it’s not a driving factor, there is a generational component to his decision not to scramble for attention. At 78, he is the oldest president in history. His tech savviness is not regularly touted. He has pledged to be a bridge to a future generation of Democrats — who welcome whatever bit of the attention he can give them.

“Most powerful man in the free world”
Hmm...., Wha an odd turn of phrase to describe a regime which stands in proud opposition to freedom.
Let’s be honest, neither he nor Kamala are in charge of this disaster.
When, not if, China Joe reseigns or dies and Harris becomes president, they may find her to be a little less submissive than Biden. Harris is a soulless Marxist and that makes her unpredictable.
Meanwhile, I have no doubt the Joey Xi's handlers are working on him to make the dupes of America believe he'has cognitive abilities.
The quisling propagandist media knows that it cannot hide China Joey Xi from extended public view indefinitely, so it is putting out quasi-plausible explanations for his absence, hoping that it will not have to publicly reckon with his cognitive decline before he dies or resigns.
