I'm not willing to give Wallace too much credit for the Comey interview- he simply brought up a few things in the IG report which Comey was incapable of explaining away- so Comey wiped the floor with Comey. But that Schiff interview was a complete disgrace- softball after softball with no meaningful follow ups. Compare to the interview with Pam Bondi where Wallace clearly had zero respect for her. Which doesn't bother me. But if you're gonna adopt that tone with Bondi, do it with Schiff as well. I think it's a combination of Wallace being ill-prepared and biased. He let Schiff steamroll him and had no comebacks.
Chris Wallace, like Comey, was also trying to get ahead of the shitstorm. Hang out a bit of fluff for us, then massage a message in their favor. For Chris W, grabbing some fake (and undeserved) credibility that can be used for lies and propaganda in the future. The speed at which they ran with the interview appears to indicate that they don't know when the shitstorm will blow in.
