I have no idea why TV moderators are used at all. I have no idea why TV is used.
poinq,
I think TV is used because it is a tool for the libs to showcase their “cares for you” and “feelings from the heart” by-line. For years the only thing the libs had to sell was how they care for you. And the cold heartless GOP didn’t, so you should go with who loves you. And they can obliterate the truth this way. They only care about themselves. But hearing it on radio, or pictures from the left leaning media doesn’t get the effect they need. An example of this is when Trump was on Letterman. The a$$half Letterman spent his whole segment with Trump trying to embarrass him with questions about his clothing lines. and where they were made. Letterman is a pro actor. and was using the TV to set up Trump to make him look bad with questions asked about certain things in certain ways. You can be assured the left leaning moderators in these debates will do the same thing while throwing softballs at Hilary. This is one of the ways the libs use the media and the media helps.
Also, watch the camera angles and cameras used by the libs. The size of the person in the camera lens will be changed so the liberal will be stronger appearing during some questions but softened during appealing questions. Watch the lighting in the backgrounds and how it emphasizes questions and when breaks are done to stop action by the conservative candidate that may jack up a libs answer. This has all been done before.
Head to head debates are all about showmanship for the liberals and points to get across for the conservatives. The media assists in this. You’ll see it.
