Vice President Kamala Harris has agreed to a sit-down interview with Fox News Bret Baier, the network announced Monday.

The interview will be taped in Pennsylvania and is expected to consist of 25 to 30 minutes of questions. Its scheduled to air on Oct. 16 at 6 p.m. EST, on Baiers show, Special Report with Bret Baier.

Baier serves as the networks chief political anchor.

Harris, the Democratic presidential nominee, wont be the first on the ticket to enter hostile territory. Her running mate, Gov. Tim Walz (D-Minn.), has appeared on Fox News Sunday the past two weekends.

Harris media appearances have ticked sharply upward in recent weeks, with interviews on 60 Minutes, The View, and The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. She also sat for a live interview on The Howard Stern Show and appeared on Call Her Daddy, a popular podcast.

Meanwhile, Harris Republican rival, former President Donald Trump , backed out of a scheduled interview with CBSs 60 Minutes hed agreed to. In a furious rant , he then demanded the century-old network be pulled off the air.

David Plouffe, a senior adviser to Harris, said Trump flaked on the CBS interview because hes afraid of lots of things.

Afraid of the debate stage, Plouffe tweeted on Oct. 1, referencing Trumps unwillingness to debate Harris a second time after they faced off in September. Afraid of 60 minutes. And his campaign team after the last three days of increasingly unhinged and unstable ranting at his rallies is clearly afraid of exposing him beyond comfortable confines.

Trump spokesperson Steven Cheung called the story fake news, and disputed that Trump had ever agreed to a 60 Minutes interview beyond initial discussions.
