CBS News Says It Will Be Up To Vance And Walz To Fact-Check Each Other In Veep Debate In other words, Vance will be allowed to spew a firehose of lies with no pushback from “moderators,” who won’t actually moderate anything because CBS is scared of the right wing reaction.
CBS News says it will be up to the candidates, not the moderators, to fact-check each other.
Then why not have Meryl Streep and Joaquin Phoenix moderate since we obviously don’t need journalists doing it?
Might as well just give them prompts on cue cards and buzzers to hit since they insist on it being a game show.
It’s a hot mic tho so I hope Walz just keeps saying clean swears stolen from Col. Potter on M*A*S*H: “Horse hockey!” “Pony pucks!” “Road apples!” “Buffalo biscuits!”
Alt: Col. Potter yelling, “Cow cookies!”
I kind of expect that Walz will be able to link policy to credible neighborly ethos and sentiment, while Vance may bullshit his way along, most of the crap that he spews will likely sound completely disconnected from reality, likely because it will be. Tim can refer to Vance being DJT's successor.
As much of a cancer right wing media has been on the country, the so called “mainstream” media has been equally responsible for the ability for Republicans to con so many of the American people.
As Edward R Murrow roles over in his grave.
Insane that a supposed 'news organization' broadcasts a debate moderated by 'journalists' who feel no obligation to make sure viewers get the facts.
Well then hears hopeing walz comes with facts to counter him
These people are ignominious cowards and just fucking shills.
