Democratic presidential hopeful Sen. Bernie Sanders will appear in a town hall later this month on Fox News — the same network that’s being boycotted by the Democratic National Committee’s debate team.

Sanders (I-Vt.) will talk economics and jobs in the hour-long discussion on April 15 in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, a former steel city in the perennial battleground state.

The self-described Democratic socialist failed to win the DNC’s backing in the 2016 presidential race, but is off to a fast start in the run-up to 2020, pacing a crowded field of candidates by collecting $18.2 million in contributions in 41 days.

Last month, the DNC announced that none of a dozen Democratic presidential debates had been awarded to Fox, claiming the network was too close to the GOP to host a “fair and neutral debate.”

The town hall will air live from 6:30 to 7:30 p.m. and be co-anchored by Fox News hosts Bret Baier and Martha MacCallum.

Fox News is owned by the same parent company as The Post.
