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.
Waltz: Vance I heard you fuck couches for fun.
Vance: NO I DON’T
Waltz: That’s not proof. If you’re gonna fact check me you gotta provide proof! Clearly you fucked couches!
Walz would be way more subtle than that.
hey. So glad you got off the damn couch.
And
Oh. Meant to ask you. How was the tour of Ashley Furniture? Find any attractive couches?
Remember when journalism was a respected profession?
I really think most ‘journalist’ are “news influencers”
Reagan, the original Ghoul
No, I genuinely do not.
I know we had Watergate, but before that we had Hearst, and a bunch of other rich assholes using their money to spread propaganda, Murdoch isn’t remotely creative, we just got complacent.
I hope Vance starts off with some of his amazing jokes /s
How long have you been moderating? Just ask me whatever makes sense.
Ok. Good.
The 90-minute debate, scheduled for 9 p.m. Eastern on Tuesday in a Manhattan studio that once hosted the children’s program "Captain Kangaroo,”
Such an easy set up for Vance to call the moderators a “kangaroo court” if they get on his case.
Would they really have the time to fact-check the gish-gallop Vance will ejaculate on them? That’s just not even feasible to get through the more egregious lies. He already said he just makes shit up. This will be the largest public face-time he will ever have (hopefully) and it all but guarantees he will shamelessly dial the horseshit up, if not just for sound bites.
And yeah, I decided to use that word.
Oh sure, tell the guy who basically said “We’ll make up whatever facts we need to to get our point across!” when the whole pet eating debacle was debunked. What could go wrong!?
This would he concerning if I wasn’t convince that Walz would sit him down and correct him like a disappointed father.
If anyone could make a politician seem like a child to their face it’d be him, and especially if that politician is Vance.
Facts? Integrity? What the hell are you talking about? We need a ratings bump.
CBS executives, probably.
Anyway Walz is gonna eat Vance’s face for dinner and then shit down his throat hole. I look forward to catching the highlights reel online.
Walz just has to be himself and he will vastly outclass any pathetic attempts at appearing charismatic that Vance will be trying to conjure up.
Then Vance will repeat Trump’s bullshit but more coherent and Walz will talk actual policy, probably appearing like the well-meaning teacher talking to the problem kid in class.
So CBS news has zero integrity.
Walz should quote Vance’s statement about making things up and make the point that he will not be fact checking someone who is on record stating they will lie. Even make the minguistic point that while Vance said he’d “make stuff up” there is another word for that: “lie”.
“So since my opponent has alresdy admitted they lie to reporters and about the price of eggs, I ask that the viewers tonight know that we can’t trust anything he says is true. He has no credibility.”
Fucking cowards. We saw how quickly fascists crumble when you fact check them. Why won’t CBS want to do that?
Because they want to help the fascist.
Something about ten dudes at a diner table with an eleventh who is a nazi.
Fucking candy asses. Call Kyle Clark. He will show those absolute wieners how it’s done.
I’m glad Amanda is for Democracy… But why is she (apparently) for embedding a landscape video inside her portrait video that doesn’t fit on my screen, so now it’s scaled down to 1/9th my TV’s viewable area?
The whole intro part didn’t add anything anyway, so it just made the viewing experience worse for no reason. That was frustrating. Still, every debate should be like that one.
Shortest vid I could find that shows the good parts. Didn’t really care what the intro was.
I’m not looking forward to the day that Colorado loses Kyle but I am certainly looking forward to the day that he gets to moderate a presidential debate. Kyle is amazing.
candy asses
Cowards. Fucking incompetent cowards.
“We just want the money, leave us the fuck out of this. We’re a news corporation. What did you expect, integrity? Ha!”

I wish I could be like “yeah I’m just not gonna do my job this time” and nothing would happen to me.
Bunch of weak ass bullshit.
Those were some of the best moments though! When the Linsey Davis (moderator) deadpan said, “There is no state in this country where it is legal to kill a baby after it’s born." I fell off my couch laughing at Trump. He didn’t know what to do, he was like a fish out of water.
I guess the GOP made it a deal breaker for the VP debate.
