CBS moderators are given a brutal assessment of their 'biased' and 'obnoxious' performance in the Vance-Walz debate
UK Daily Mail ^ | October 2 2024 | NIKKI SCHWAB and Jon Michael Raasch

Pundits and commentators online were not all pleased with the CBS News moderators' performance during Tuesday night's vice presidential debate.

The most jarring moment came when Margaret Brennan fact-checked Republican VP nominee, Ohio Sen. J.D. Vance over comments he made about Haitian migrants.

That led to a back-and-forth that ended with Brennan and Norah O'Donnell cutting off the candidates' mics.

They can handle being labeled "snakes" (which they are) ...
"Kitties" (or "chickies", as one may prefer) brings out the aging feminist in them ... which is fun to watch.

Cutting off the mic was obscene and undemocratic. They attacked him and tried to prevent him from responding and clarifying. I’m glad he kept talking and despite what the moderator said we could hear him.

They need to go back to the committee on presidential debates and change the rules. Each candidate should have “free time” to use as they deem fit. And the candidates should be debating each other, asking each other questions. Not this staged scripted questioning from moderators and a 2 minute time limit. The moderators can prompt topics, but then let the candidates take it from there. None of this “the question was…” crap.

Personally I found the constant moderators saying “you have 2 minutes” to be ingratiating. They are nobodies. Let the candidates go at it any way they want.

To me it was clear from the start. the moderators were dressed in blue and pink not red, same for the podiums.
Even JD’s tie was washed out. Their questions were cleverly biased ! Whal’s was not checked on his obvious lie about China, etc. Even my Rat cousin commented on that!

Some are just higher up within the coven.

No kidding, especially the one in pink. The other one looked like she was trying to out-orange Trump.

“Ingratiating” or “aggravating”?

There’s a tweet just out from @FoxNews headlined “Voters react to Vance ‘non-answer’ when asked if Trump won 2020 election”.

While this was a small part of the bias, of course, this question continues to rub my raw. The answer should be this:

‘How could we possibly know if Trump won or lost? At every step, the Democrat party is employing tactics to defeat election integrity laws put forth by Republicans, and at every election there are questionable — if not outright illegal — actions being conducted by Democrat party supporters that involve ballot harvesting, mail fraud, signature fraud, registration fraud, the failure to remove ineligible voters from the rolls, vote counts that exceed the number of eligible voters, the encouragement and active solicitation of non-citizens to vote, and even more.

Republicans are trying to insure honesty and integrity while also guaranteeing that every eligible voter can vote and trying to assure them that their vote will count. Every single time, Democrats are opposing this. The reason for this is clear: they must be trying to cheat.’

That was NOT a debate, it was a Campaign Event paid for and sponsored with Illegal In Kind Political Contributions Paid for by CBS and it’s employee’s.

I remember when Freepers loved Norah O'Donnell. Sigh. That was a long time ago.

Pretty eyes, IMHO. But ugly inside.

The left is claiming that Vance was ‘mansplaining’, a grave sin, to the two so-called moderators.
