The Biden campaign election-year strategy is becoming clear: Occasional press conferences using note cards with pre-approved questions from pre-selected reporters along with pre-recorded softball interviews with boot-licking Democrat lackeys in the media with like-minded audiences.
On the latter point, President Biden recorded an interview with Seth Meyers for air later tonight in what will no doubt be a scripted Democrat talking point-palooza:
It’s a 10 year reunion between @SethMeyers, Amy Poehler and @POTUS @JoeBiden! Tune in tonight. pic.twitter.com/VDDbThA0Ae

The media's reporting this as an unannounced surprise stop, because that's how the White House wants them to frame it:
President Biden made an unannounced stop to surprise the audience at Late Night with Seth Meyers to celebrate the show's 10th anniversary.

Big audience reaction when Biden made a surprise appearance on the set of "Late Night with Seth Meyers" for 10th anniversary show https://t.co/PqGiNzIn0v

The "surprise appearance" language came straight from the White House, and of course the media dutifully ran with it.
From the WH: ‘The President has arrived at 30 Rock for a surprise appearance on NBC’s Late Night with Seth Meyers. Today marks the 10-year anniversary of the show, and then-Vice President Biden appeared on its first episode in February 2014.’

It was far from a "surprise" visit because this was announced days ago:

Yep, Biden's scheduled appearance was a real surprise alright!
Only person surprised was Joe Biden as we knew days ago. 🎪🤡

The media were handed their talking points and are just doing their jobs as they see it (which isn't really "journalism").
UPDATE: Yep, the media's working this one hard:
The first line of this story is hysterical.

"President Biden is staying up late, making an appearance on “Late Night” as the NBC show marks its 10th anniversary with Seth Meyers in the hosting chair."
Meyers show records at 4:00pm EST. https://t.co/ykm0sfyRbo
LOL!
