Let’s get some discussion on the current buzz word.

It depends upon the purpose of the interview. Presidential Debate questions are supposed to inform voters as to the policies or character of the candidate.
In a deposition on the other hand, we ask questions to try to build a foundation to prove a fact.
The problem with a multi candidate debate platform is not just the fairness of a question to each candidate, but also the distribution of “tough” questions among them. That is where the bias comes in to play.
Equally tough or equally softball for all or a mix that is equal across all candidates.
The Nuclear Triad question was a very unusual in its specificity compared to other questions presented by a moderator. On a standardized test, the question would have been thrown out.
It is the equivalent of asking a set of candidates “Who was Chester C. Arthur’s vice president?” knowing that only one of eight candidates is a presidential scholar. That would be considered a set up for the rest of the field.
This, as well, adds clarity.
To return to my OP, Hannity and the other talkers could really help if they would omit the 14th repetition of the same old, same old, and delve into such have we have here on this little thread.
