the papers I worked at gor J-school grads semi regularly. They are as left as you say.

There are the SJWs that think they will change the world through their brilliant intellect and sense of ‘justice’ and the type that think TV journalists and the ‘Crusading Reporter’ are still real things. The two do overlap.

What they lack is any writing ability or reporting ability. Most are of low IQ and that is not a joke. I mean low IQ for real. As in stupid as a box of rocks because their beliefs, not their skills got them their diploma/grades from their liberal professors.

Thanks. Maybe it was FoxNews FB comments that were being removed. She’s being slammed there, as well....or was.

re: “Was it not also a legitimate question?”

I think it is a legitimate question, but not in a “debate”. The purpose of the debate is supposedly to inform voters what the candidates believe on the issues facing the nation - not to create news.

The question would be legitimate in the context of an interview or when Trump is being grilled by the media in a press conference. All questions are fair game in that setting (at least in my opinion).

I think these, “Raise your hand if you promise not to. . .” type questions are out of place in a supposed debate setting. Especially since this one was designed to divide the candidates against one another, before the debate even really got started. And, is that the role of the moderators?? To divide the candidates against one another?

A debate is not a press conference. It is supposed to inform voters as to what the candidates believe and stand for on issues that matter to the nation as a whole, with the purpose of helping we the citizens to make an informed choice as to who we will elect to be our leaders.

These “moderators” instead used their position to conduct an interview of the candidates with “gotcha” questions rather than examine what these candidates would do as president on various policy issues or moral issues facing our nation. We learned how they might handle being asked idiotic questions, but I’m not so sure we learned much about the candidates beyond that.

I guess we learned that Trump wouldn’t back down with that “raise your hand” question - but, didn’t we kind of know that about him before the “debate” anyway?

I can see Megyn’s FB page along with my message, which is the best, (of course)!

LOL.

Megyn never attended to J school. She started out as a successful corporate lawyer before changing careers into journalism. Her legal background has served her well so far in her journalism career because she is a tough smart and fearless interrogator, but she was outplayed by Trump tonight.

Chris Wallace has always had a reputation for “Gotcha” questions. That may be one of the reasons so few Conservatives are seen on FOX News Sunday with Chris Wallace.

Lady Heroin there are many here who are hardly horrified by a Third Party. Consider your selfness damn lucky we’re even hanging around the R Party now, only because of Trump.

I am not afraid of a third party and I will not stoop to calling you names either because you disagree with me. Actually, I will be voting 3rd party if there is a good pro-life conservative one if Jeb or Christi are the candidates.

I am looking at another Clinton running and seeing history repeat itself. Sorry, you are so invested in whatever you are invested in you can not see the point of the history lesson I am trying to point out. Both Trump and Perot had left leanings in their past before running.....They both created a stir with their straight forward talk and not letting the media best them and the media dumped on both candidates creating a symphony for their treatment.

All I was pointing out is be careful of the purpose of these candidates before jumping full force behind them.

I mean low IQ for real.

Many go to J-school because they can't cut it at other programs. It also has flash glamorous appeal, too.
