Journalists (and I use that term generically) are supposed to ask questions and transcribe the answers - period. THEY are supposed to debate the interviewee. They’re not supposed to be prosecutors. Today’s media seems to think they have to ambush and mischaracterize everything conservatives say rather than simply letting them speak their minds for more than 20 seconds. They are so full of their own agendas that they don’t even listen to what is being said to them anymore.
Sorry about that.
At some point around the end of 1990s...the job of journalist came to a ‘Y’ in the road. Some tried to stay motivated and be still a journalist. The rest went to being ‘lecture-enthusiasts’ or pretender-lobbyists.
This is the key issue with MSNBC and CNN...they don’t have any journalists left at this point. After this election period...I don’t see any public interest existing and their market will collapse in a massive way.
Conservatves settle for too little.
Everyone said the moderator was comparatively better.
Some even gave her a B.
Given the failures of the first two moderators, her fighting defense of Biden at the end of the debate showed that she also was a failure.
Settle only for impartially, not better than bad.
