Welp, the wait is over. Queen Hillary has finally agreed to an interview:
.@HillaryClinton to do first national TV interview with CNN's @brikeilarcnn http://t.co/1HNM3ywVn1
— Jake Tapper (@jaketapper) July 6, 2015
More from CNN:
Hillary Clinton on Tuesday will give the first nationally televised interview of her presidential campaign to CNN senior political correspondent Brianna Keilar.
The Democratic front-runner has largely stayed away from the press, only occasionally taking questions from reporters and granting interviews to local news outlets in early-voting states like Iowa and New Hampshire.
But she hasn’t granted national outlets interviews since jumping into the 2016 race in April. The first one, with Keilar, will take place in Iowa City, as Clinton campaigns in the first state to vote in the presidential nominating process.
No word yet on whether Keilar will be forced to stand behind a rope. Also no word on whether this will come up:

Very interesting.
Hillary Clinton's first interview is with a journalist who attended one of her aides weddings. Accessibility!

It's almost like there's a deep, semi-incestuous relationship between the press and the Democrats. https://t.co/4bDehQ9DKu

Why bother https://t.co/gExP3H7Hrp

Good question.
Hey, for all we know @brikeilarcnn will do a tough interview with Hillary, but this tells me it won't be that tough. https://t.co/g8DFiEOCWv
