Original report:
Fox News is making a deal to host a California debate between Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders, according to a CBS News report. Hillary Clinton was invited to take part, but declined, the report says.
Fox News is in back-channel negotiations for an event featuring Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders before California's June 7 primary, according to Fox News anchor Bret Baier.

In a Friday interview with WMAL's Brian Wilson, Baier said that the talks with the two campaigns "are progressing" and that there's "real interest."
