- @SL93: I'll get to it in a few days, at the latest. Regards.—Bagumba (talk) 23:55, 4 October 2021 (UTC)
- @SL93: The quote issue is resolved. For the hook, I missed mentioning before that the page needs to be updated to more explicitly say that she interviewed presidential candidates. It would also be less ambiguous if the hook referred to the U.S. earlier, together with the "presidential candidates", and perhaps plain "national media" would then be ok.—Bagumba (talk) 15:56, 5 October 2021 (UTC)

- SL93: When a reader comes across "who has interviewed presidential candidates", it's initially unclear which country is being referred to. Therefore, I was suggesting something like "who has interviewed U.S. presidential candidates".—Bagumba (talk) 22:29, 5 October 2021 (UTC)
