I admit, I quit reading after the FIRST TWO TIMES.

Regardless, at least they have truth in advertising when it comes to calling their news readers just plain readers of news, unlike in the US where we pretend idiots like Dan Rather are journalists.

If you're so adamant about the BBC, then we should get a voice over announcer to just read the questions.

My idea is to completely eliminate the personalities of the questioners. The debate should be about the candidates and not the media.

There's only one person eminently qualified for the role of moderator as I outlined in post #22. Even Rush Limbaugh doesn't have the well-honed skills of our founder.

How about, they’re put in a plexiglass tube, kind of like a “Cone of Silence” and if they exceed their time, cut the mike.

Thank you for pinging me. I like your suggestions/plan.
I get to judge/ moderate debates (Lincoln/ Douglas) for our high school. Your format is very similar to what you use. Obviously ours is compressed due to time constraints and it works very well. The only reason the lam e stream media doesn't do it is that they are not he center of attention then.

That’s right. Actually, there a two reasons the Leftist MSM won’t do it. I have to stop. Why is the Right even giving the Left the opportunity to run the “debates” of the candidates on the Right??? Of COURSE the Left will screw it up. The stupidity is the Right letting the Left run THE RIGHT’S SHOW. Astonishing.

Having said that, there probably many reasons the Leftist MSM won’t run an actual debate. Two of them are 1) what you said, wanting to be the center of attention and 2) so they can dictate the subjectmatter to keep the candidates from talking about the real issues of the day brought about by Obama and the Left and threatened to continue with Clinton and the Left.
