CNBC staffers still licking their wounds

A comparable question in the Dim debate would be for the moderator to point out that Hillary is a liar and then ask Bernie whether she has the character to be president.
Sanders already stood up for Clinton when asked that sort of question when he said "the American people are sick and tired of hearing about your damn emails!"

Democratic debate 2015: Hillary Clinton's big night - CNNPolitics.com

Sanders isn't a real candidate. He's a Clinton flack masquerading as a candidate.
 
Who, in God's name, is actually watching these debates? And why the hell would they? Watch the kid's goldfish, and do yourself a favor...
Dude it's even better than the Walking Dead. There's a plot twist like every 5 minutes!
Too sick, even for my mind. It's like watching evil, done wrong...
It's ok paintmyface, you loved the democrat debate with an avowed card carrying socialist running for the democrat nomination. Proving that all those right wingers calling the democrats socialist were correct.
I never watch the debates. Idiotic, like most of the elections.
 
Do people really make up their mind on whom they are voting for as a results of these debates? Gosh, I really hope not.
 
"CNBC staffers still licking their wounds"

Another ridiculous lie from the right.

No one is 'licking his wounds,' the press is at liberty to ask any questions, the candidates are at liberty to respond or not, not whine about the questions being asked.

The RNC is at liberty to tell NBC to fuck off and take their debates elsewhere.

Yeah, I'll bet those debate "moderators" where gloating and partying after it was over.
 
Undoubtedly there's going to be a backlash to the backlash. By cancelling debates Republicans are going to look like they're scared of tough questions. Most Americans didn't see the debates. What they believe is going to be whatever happens in the next few days. The Republicans could likely be seen as taking the low road.
Cancelling debates?

What debates are they cancelling? They simply are not going to use this network again and they should not. No one should. The questions were epically pathetic and showed CNBC is not a serious news organization. The problem with the debates was not an abundance of 'hard' questions. It was an utter lack of them filled with asinine showboating and questions like why don't you stop beating your wife. Pathetic for moderators that are supposed to bring the candidate to task on real issues while maintain objectivity. Then they cap the session off with an outright lie.

They should have been fired.

I doubt it - they looked pathetic and gave the republicans a lot of fire. Rather than constant reporting on the gaffs and candidates that showed poorly the news has been covering how pathetic CNBC was.
 
When the audience is booing the moderators for their idiotic questions.......

When Cruz's pushback hits a 98.........

When Carl Bernstein calls the debate reprehensible.....

You know that CNBC fucked up.
 
What utter horseshit. "Scardycats, scardycats!" Is this kind of infantile logic actually supposed to convince anyone of anything? It's obvious you Dims are desperate to keep the Republicans under your fire. They would be fools to let the Praetorian Guard media scumbags run any more debates. They have shown their true colors for the entire country to see.
It's all in the public perception. If the Republicans look like they're running from tough questions, yes, they'd be scaredy cats.
Should government regulate fantasy football? You are an idiot.
 
Did you see them run over to that other nasty station, PMSnbc, so Chrissy (tingles up his leg over Obama) Matthews can console them. saying how it's those Republicans they are just big meanies. that whole thing was an ugly joke and people should be pissed at them for turning a debate for you to observe and decide on a President and they go and turn it some NASTY circus. people should let CNBC know about. fill up their emails, call them, etc
 
The media really must not understand how they are despised. They appear to believe that people are tuning into a debate to watch them.

Bloody arrogant talking heads.

:lol:

This says it all.

"According to a "live dial" test pollster Frank Luntz has been using at debates since 1996 to measure "human emotion and feeling," Cruz's tirade reached the highest score among viewers ever recorded, peaking at a 97/98 out of 100.

"One hundred means that every person in the group would have had their dials to 100. So this score means that 24 of the 26 [participants] had their dials as high as they would go…[Cruz] said what every conservative has been thinking…

They really hate these moderators," Luntz told Politico's Mike Allen. Luntz also emphasized to CNN that 98 is "the highest score we've ever measured. EVER."

Ted Cruz didn't just soak up a lot of applause for slamming the CNBC moderators. He broke a debate record.

No they won't. They look like they're finally starting to get a clue. Right now the GOP public image is so deeply mired in infantile antics they can't even have a serious Presidential debate. What it looks like to me is that there's no longer any semblance or facade in the media of trying to ask "tough" questions of the GOP candidates; the aim of provoking even more juvenile antics is clear and unapologetic, and the absurdity of it is finally making the shit hit the fan for Republicans. They're sobering up and coming to their senses and realizing that if they want the public to take them as a serious party with serious candidates, they have to get their shit together.

They ARE scared of tough questions....that's quite evident by the reactions.
