About three months ago Laura Ingraham and Tucker Carlson went up against Al Franken and Eric Alterman. It was at the NY Y or some such place. The moderator was invisible. Eric Alterman actually appeared embarrassed for Franken. I remember thinking at the time that the backers of Franken's radio program, which had not yet begun, should have pulled their support. Laura is very quick on her feet. imo.

The moderator was invisible.

That was the NYT Weekend Style Editor. My recall was that she did step in a points when Franken and Alterman really got bad. It was enough that I had planned to send her an email about it. If we complain when they do something wrong, you gotta pat them on the ass and say "Attaboy" when they do right.
