All over the Internet, and even on Fakebook!
Kamala’s BEST FRIEND runs ABC News, you KNEW this was going to be schitshow, long before it began.
“This clip may be the most egregious example of ABC debate moderators’ direct actions/inactions to affect viewers’ perceptions of the information presented at the debate.
There are at least seven instances of this within a two-minute span.
This is not “bias.”
It’s much worse.
This is direct, planned interference in the debate outcome. When moderators take on the role of “fact checkers” the inference is that the absence of a “fact check” confers validity to the non-fact-checked information.
When one side is repeatedly “fact checked,” while the other is not, that is a signal to the viewer that one side is not reliable and truthful, while the other side is.
The ABC moderators had their orders, and here you see those orders executed.
In this clip:
1) Trump says Pelosi is responsible for security at the Capitol.
True.
Muir intervenes on Kamala’s behalf by cutting him off with snarky retort, doesn’t acknowledging the validity of Trump’s statement, and immediately redirects to Kamala to set up her “answer” he knows is coming. This is direct action by Muir to affect the outcome of this exchange.
2) Kamala says she was at the Capitol on J6.
She was there in the morning, but left to go to DNC HQ prior to the riot. Critical information is omitted. No fact-check.
3) Kamala says Trump incited a mob to attack the Capitol. False.
Trump’s “peacefully and patriotically” comments are ignored. Trump is not charged with inciting violence. No fact check.
4) Kamala says that “some” police officers died on January 6.
False.
No fact check.
5) Kamala recites the Charlottesville “Fine People” hoax.
This has been thoroughly and repeatedly debunked. No fact check.
6) Kamala recites the “stand back and stand by” hoax.
This is designed to infer that Trump was ordering a “militia” to act on later orders, when he was clearly asking for a cooling of tensions. No fact check.
7) Kamala recites the “bloodbath” hoax.
Trump was talking about the automobile industry, not violence. No fact check.
To quote Megyn Kelly on the ABC moderators:
“They did exactly what their bosses wanted.””

Backfired: David Muir attempted to fact check the Haitian eating pets in Ohio story. He lied.

JUST IN: Donald Trump calls for ABC News to get their license taken away after their abysmal debate moderation last night.
Moderators David Muir and Linsey Davis are under fire for their continuous fact-checks of Trump without any for Harris.
The moderators not only… pic.twitter.com/1TDX9TPxub
