Every moderator is biased to certain degree so trying to find unbiased one to moderate debate is pointless. Instead they should bring one with obvious conservative bias (Hannity/Gutfeld) and one with obvious liberal bias (Maddow/Cooper).
This way both sides will be challenged every time they want to avoid to answer a question.
Debates should have timekeepers, not moderators.
Just let the candidates have a discussion and ask each other questions.
Yeah, this ivy league debate format hasn't truly ever felt like a debate. Its always one guy saying his piece, being interrupted, then cut off by the moderator, and then like clockwork, CNN declares the democrat the winner. I am over that format. The above idea is nice, and if we could get legit candidates, that would make for a more convincing, legit political landscape, and probably even weed out the extremists. I dont mind seeing them argue, but i cant atand a "moderator" moderating only one side. And this could probably bring out more like Trump, who just tell it like it is.
Debate organization should be dumped altogether.
Exactly.
"Moderators" are there to keep them on the narrative
This could make for the greatest reality TV ever... as the moderators devolve into fisticuffs!
That would be the show to watch!
Well, I guess this used to be the idea of having moderators from multiple media outlets. This time it could quite possibly be, that the guy from FOX NEWS was responsible for the worst debate with regards to Trump bias.
What about the candidates posing the questions?
That's what i'd really want to see. Joe would be in tears 5 minutes in
YES THIS!
Have the two moderators argue with each other
Hannity 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yes, that is how news media should be in general. The Walter Cronkite figure is a lie.
Though I agree with others that the debate format is just stupid. The candidates should choose and ask the questions.
This idea was suggested on Rush's radio show yesterday (Mark Steyn), almost word-for-word.
My idea, debates should have two openly biased moderators picked by each side that rotate between asking questions for their team and the opposition. Each candidate would get asked hard questions and also get a chance to highlight accomplishments
Gutfeld is more moderate. He got the "new york values". He's a plant. He is going to get hillary elected...............yaw mean?
