After Pennsylvania Lt. Gov. John Fetterman’s campaign tried to blame its candidate’s humiliating debate performance on a closed captioning system “filled with errors,” Nexstar Media Groups, who hosted the debate, said that was a lie.
Here’s the statement from the Fetterman campaign [emphasis mine throughout]:
We are thrilled with John’s performance. He did remarkably well tonight — especially when you consider that he’s still recovering from a stroke and was working off of delayed captions filled with errors. John won countless exchanges, counter-punched aggressively, and pushed back on Oz’s cruelty and attacks.
Gary Weitman, Nexstar’s Chief Communications Officer, responded with this statement:
Both candidates were offered the opportunity for two full rehearsals with the same equipment used in tonight’s debate; Mr. Fetterman chose to do only one. In fact, Nexstar’s production team went to extraordinary lengths to ensure the effectiveness of the closed captioning process, and to accommodate several last-minute requests of the Fetterman campaign. The closed captioning process functioned as expected during rehearsal and again during tonight’s debate. We regret that Mr. Fetterman and his campaign feel otherwise.
It’s not difficult to choose who to believe here.
The corporate media have done everything possible to drag Fetterman over the finish line, including offering this closed captioning system. Moreover, this debate proves the Fetterman campaign and the media have been lying all along about Fetterman’s fitness to serve. He’s in no shape to be hauled around the campaign trail. He’s in no shape to debate. He should be resting and receiving intense rehabilitation. He’s certainly in no shape to serve as a U.S. Senator.

We are talking about the same state that voted for Arlen Specter, the facilitator of murderer Ira Einhorn’s escape to Sweden while out on reduced bail.
I think White Liberals just love releasing murdering Blacks. Blacks are the new hegemony...gawd save us.
Ehh Wolfy won because of feckless Tom Corbett and Fetterman was an unknown entity. He was the guy from “Braddock”.
The fact they would claim this is an admission of just how bad he did
The stupidity is mind-boggling.
I just had some moron adjuster from Nationwide call me and leave a message.
Every single thing he related in his voicemail to me was wrong and not factual.
He couldn’t have been more incorrect concerning my claim.
I just called someone else and said keep him away from this thing he doesn’t know what he is doing at all.
“Like with a cloth?”
As an “honest” person who wants to represent their state, why didn’t John Fedderman just admit at the very beginning that with his stroke he could not function well enough to represent his constituents properly and withdraw so another Democrat could step in to do the job? To me this was just plain selfishness and greed.
I mean Fetterman not Fedderman.
White liberal ‘elites’ have used blacks as a weapon for decades... One more reason to vote white liberal ‘elites’ out of office.
