How To Watch Cynthia Nixon's First TV Interview Since Declaring Her NY Governor Run

On Wednesday, April 4 a former Sex and the City actress and now New York gubernatorial candidate will have her debut television interview on the Wendy Williams Show. If you wish to watch Cynthia Nixon and Wendy Williams' interview, there are a variety of ways that you can tune in.

Nixon announced her candidacy for governor on March 19. The former Sex and the City actress is running against incumbent Governor Andrew Cuomo in the state's Democratic primary. Nixon announced her run in a video posted on social media, in which she stated, “Something has to change ... We are sick of politicians who care more about headlines and power than they do about us. It can’t just be business as usual anymore.”

Nixon has selected the Wendy Williams Show to conduct her first television interview since announcing her candidacy. As Variety reported, at first glance, Nixon's appearance on the show might perhaps be unexpected, as Williams' show tends to focus on pop-culture and entertainment. However, as the outlet noted, Nixon's campaign spokesperson, Rebecca Katz, said that Williams' ability to draw and connect with large audiences is a big appeal. “We win by getting her in front of voters, because we actually want them to see the real Cynthia ... And that’s what we get with Wendy. Her viewers are a large and crucial part of the electorate, and her show reaches all corners of the state," Katz said.

If you wish to watch Williams' interview with Nixon, there are several ways you can tune in. Williams' show is on cable and primarily distributed through local affiliates of the CW, Fox, and MyNetworkTV (MNTV) — though affiliates of other networks sometimes air the show as well.

Finally, if you do not wish to watch the interview via cable or online, but want to follow along and witness people's reactions to it, consider using social media. If you type keywords related to the interview, such as "Cynthia Nixon" and "Wendy Williams" into Twitter's search bar, its search engine should pull up a variety of reactions to the interview — which you can browse through at your leisure. Moreover, you can also consider checking the Wendy Williams' Show's Facebook page to observe any reactions people are having to information that the show posts about the interview.
