How is excluding the public not a level playing field?
Because PBS is hosting the thing. Check out the moderator list. It is anything but level. Tilted hard toward Cheney.
They don’t want people there that aren’t cheney supporters....the article says itself that it’s a “deeply red state”. Chances are the public would be overwhelmingly anti cheney conservatives. That’s my opinion anyway.
They ALWAYS have to have complete control don’t they.
