The forum knows what I'm talking about. That you're ignorant is hardly surprising.--------------------------------------------------
WHAT.....were those 'lies'? In your opinion.
Be specific, so the forum will know just what you are referring to.
Vance is still going into a 3 against 1 situation like Trump. Which is why I won't watch this useless version of kabuki political theatre.CBS News draws a red line after ABC debate fact-checking drama
CBS News, hosting vice presidential candidates JD Vance and Tim Walz for the general election campaign’s third debate next week, says it will be up to the politicians — not the moderators — to check the facts of their opponents.
************************
Yeah, that's the way it works.
Instead of running interference like the two assholes from ABC posing as moderators, these people will let Walz figure out what's wrong.
Not that he has a clue.
But, I give CBS credit. They know what a MODERATORS JOB is.

When fox moderated, Chris Wallace asked trump about white supremacy.Cool three debates all "moderated" by Democrat controlled news outlets, CNN, ABC and CBS. Can't even have one moderated by Fox. Let's hear it for a fair and balanced election process!

Let's be clear...True, that IS the moderators job, just to ask the questions and run the clock. The debate is supposed to remain between the candidates.
But I suspect that to CBS, it is a bit more:
- By not fact-checking, they hope to cash in on the criticism that ABC got.
- By not fact-checking, they remove any possibility of criticism for allowing Walz to make any claim he wants. Without fact-checking, Walz can be the most flawed candidate imaginable, say anything he wants, and now it is 100% on Trump's shoulders to defend against it. But what about Trump? Can he say anything? He can try, but now Walz is free to attack in response saying anything and it is again on Trump's shoulders to defend, CBS is free and clear.
I'll believe it when I see it. I haven't seen Nora O'Donnell in years, but I watch Face the Nation fairly regularly. Margret Brenner is very partisan. She'll fact check via "follow up" questions.CBS News draws a red line after ABC debate fact-checking drama

We understand that you just want 2 hours of fact free ranting...Award winning....as in biggest asshole ?
Being a so-called prominent journalist means NOTHING these days.
Fuck off.
Highly regarded ? By who ? You ? Hahahahaha
These two are losers and the whole industry is seen as one step below used car sales
Not in a debate, jackass. That is the job of the opponent. It's always been that way. Ever judged a debate ? You don't judge based on things you think you know.
Dumbass.
If you watch a debate looking for truth, you are a fool.
Candy Crowley tarnished her career and retired soon after her 2012 fuck up.
If you want journalism, you read a newspaper.
A debate is where the two candidates show what they know.
If they want to lie their asses off, it's up to their opponents to point it out.
NOT THE MODERATORS.
Fuckwad.
So you can't be specific...The forum knows what I'm talking about. That you're ignorant is hardly surprising.
Let's start with the "very fine people" lie. Trump explicitly condemned White nationalists and Neo-nazis and excluded them from his "very fine people" remark. I know that. You know that. Kamala knows that. Pedo Joe knows that. So why are you pretending to be an ignoramus?So you can't be specific...
In debate rules you loose...
Now if it was a fact free rant, you might hold your own... Thanks for making our point...
Seriously, these MAGA should see how political discussion happened in the past and in 1st world countries today...Still CBS is caving into republican pressure. Harris knows how to debate as she was on the debate team in college. Trump just wings it. So they are favoring Trump on this.
Trump unhinged would be nothing new so this is not a debate but what the heck and anything goes. .
Trump is going to be wrong 80% of the time. So if they want this to be a what if, what the heck, truth does not matter then it will be that
If fact checking corrects errors then they should be corrected and it keeps the topic on track instead of what the heck anything goes as long as it the spoken word.
I can understand that it good PR to let trump go unhinged and rattle away but a debate is a controlled discussion. IF Trump cannot control himself then so be it.
If you cannot control the discussion , it is no long a debate but a platform for each side to repeat the usual. So its not a debate just a platform to present your position.
but in the end it going to be a shouting match
Still Harris should have no problem. Trump will be the usual suspect.
Read the transcript from the debate... Harris was misleading but not actually a lie...Let's start with the "very fine people" lie.

Proud Boys is not a militia. I'd forgotten about that lie. Thanks for reminding me."And understand, the former president has been indicted and impeached for exactly that reason. But this is not an isolated situation. Let's remember Charlottesville, where there was a mob of people carrying tiki torches, spewing antisemitic hate, and what did the president then at the time say? There were fine people on each side. Let's remember that when it came to the Proud Boys, a militia, the president said, the former president said, "Stand back and stand by." So for everyone watching who remembers what January 6th was, I say we don't have to go back. Let's not go back." - Harris
Harris could easily point out that Trump was giving them cover under fine people and did little initally to be clear on who he should be condemning...

Trump’s Charlottesville statement was repugnant — no matter how you parse it
Apparently, it’s important to Trump that he convince people that his response to the racist, murderous violence in Virginia wasn’t beneath the office of the presidency.www.msnbc.com
Speaking in an interview on the morning of the rally, former Ku Klux Klan Grand Wizard David Duke called the protests "a turning point for the people of this country. We are determined to take our country back. We're going to fulfill the promises of Donald Trump. That’s why we voted for Donald Trump, because he said he’s going to take our country back." Following Trump's initial comments made three days after the rally, Duke tweeted, "Thank you President Trump for your honesty & courage to tell the truth about #Charlottesville & condemn the leftist terrorists in BLM/Antifa."[257][258] The Daily Stormer wrote of Trump's response, "He didn't attack us…. No condemnation at all. When asked to condemn, he just walked out of the room. Really, really good. God bless him.
He was praised by the KKK and the Daily Stormer at the time...
Trump has to defend himself there...
Harris could have been more specific and say that Trump was prised by the KKK and Neo-NAzi Paper (Daily Stormer) for his handling of Charlottesville. They said he didn't attack them...
Seriously, these MAGA should see how political discussion happened in the past and in 1st world countries today...
I know in certain countries in Europe if you are caught lying the next question from the anchor would be,
'You have been a proven liar today, why should we trust anything else you say?'
You will be ripped to shreds.
Bush didn't lie in this interview but he was trying to run down the clock (a common tactic)

It’s a journalist’s right, as well as her duty, to ask the hard questions
“ON the eve of his recent sojourn in Europe, President Bush had an unpleasant run-in with a species of creature he had not previously encountered often — a journalist.”www.irishexaminer.com
In fairness Bush handled himself better than most... Sorry but if Trump got this we never have heard the end of it...
Nope... At best misleading... But the whole time Trump spent days before actually condemning it...That's still a lie.
Proud Boys is not a militia. I'd forgotten about that lie. Thanks for reminding me.
"...you had people and I'm not talking about the neo-nazis and the white nationalist
because they should be condemned totally."
Trump was very hesitant in condemning them... Took him 3 days after the event.Duke is wrong. Trump condemned White nationalists and neo-nazis.
