I don’t care which candidate you’re supporting, if you saw the so-called debate this week, you know that ABC did a terrible job of moderating.
I couldn’t say it better than Editor & Publisher, who said that moderators George Stephanopoulos and Charlie Gibson turned the Obama/Clinton Presidential debate on ABC TV this week into “perhaps the most embarrassing performance by the media in a major presidential debate in years.” How dare they, for example, ask Senator Obama “Do you love the American flag?”
Watch the video, and then please sign a petition from MoveOn.org to ABC Management. As Baratunde Thurston noted on Twitter “ABC needs to pay a high price for the tremendous disservice they did the people of PA and the USA tonight.”
Shame on ABC TV’s Terrible Presidential Debate – Sign the Petition
