ABC Moderator Linsey Davis Admits: ‘Fact-checking’ Was Only Planned for Trump

[Fort Fun Indiana]

ABC News’ Linsey Davis, one of two moderators for last week’s presidential debate, admitted to the Los Angeles Times that the plan was only to fact-check former President Donald Trump, and not Vice President Kamala Harris.

Davis told the Times that ABC had deliberately targeted Trump — and only Trump — because of perceptions that he had been allowed to get away with false statements in the CNN debate against President Joe Biden in late June.

But.... there's no bias in the media.
Why did the debate look like 3 against 1? Because it was, and they admit it.

Tell us, in factual, rational, non-partisan terms how it makes sense to only target Trump for fact checking because of the supposedly poor moderation of the prior debate.
Be sure to include the various changes of position Harris exhibited since her elevation to Dem nominee.

The fact checking on Cheeto Hitler should have started the minute he came down the escalator.

Kamala gets a pass in your world then?

Kamala gets a pass in your world then?

If she starts telling outright lies like Cheeto Jesus does, I'm all for fact-checking her.

The problem is that the Media look at Trump as "entertainment" and still does. So they let him say absolutely batshit crazy things like "Mexicans are Rapists" and "They're eating the Dogs, they're eating the cats" without challenge for years. Never, ever should have gotten that far.

Oh, either you missed the debate or totally believe the already debunked lies she said ....that were ignored by the Trump Truth Team, David and Lindsay.

I watched the debate.

What I saw was a woman who looked sane and presidential vs. a complete fucking maniac who was ranting about his crowd sizes and how they are eating the cats.

 

[HikerGuy83]

Trump was not debating or practicing.

Yep, big mistake on his part.

If he does another debate, he's finished.

He won't prepare and he sucks.

He did well against Biden. So if the debate were on Fox News? And they would definitely give trump the questions ahead of time

Is Vance debating wall?

Honestly, why are moderators allowed to fact check at all. Their job is to moderate, you know, control the flow of the debate, ask questions, things like that. They are not there to interject themselves into the debate.

If people want to know the facts, they can look them up on their own.

 

[ThisIsMe]

The fact checking on Cheeto Hitler should have started the minute he came down the escalator.

Absolutely, by the people and the news…but not the debate moderators.

Sorry but lots of Republicans filled out lots of bogus affidavits in 2016 so you'll have to give us more evidence than a sworn affidavit for us to believe anything you are saying.

Extraordinary liars need extraordinary proof.

you'll have to give us more evidence than a sworn affidavit for us to believe anything you are saying

Which means no amount of information would convince you.

ABC had to cheat to help harris look somewhat good, and she still couldn’t help from lying the entire time

That was trumps plan. Use the fake ass but overwhelming number of false affidavits to stop the certification of the vote.

Everything was thrown out of court. Didn’t matter. Press on. Fake electors. Even further muddy the water.

And ultimately have Clarence and alito hand trump the presidency.

Those affidavits hold the same weight as they’re eating the pets

Main thing was answering just one question directly

They called him out when he blatantly lied. Like executing babies. No where in america do they execute babies.

And turns out they aren’t eating the pets of Springfield.

Kamala didn’t boldly lie like trump

Kameltoe lied when she claimed no troops were in combat zones

That was a blatant and disrespectful lie

In tampon Tim’s own state he signed into law, alllowing no care for babies who survive an abortion

ABC lied

 

[HikerGuy83]

He did well against Biden.

No he didn't.

Biden self destructed.

I thought Trump was terrible.
