Elizabeth Warren pressed after saying lefty controversial senate candidate Graham Platner is her 'kind of man'

The New York Post is an established national outlet, and this story is attributed to Fox News. The piece identifies the interview and quotes its participants, though much of its account of Platner’s past relies on reported claims rather than independently detailed sourcing.
