The obvious prejudice shown by debate moderators David Muir and Linsey Davis should surprise no one.
After Tim Burton’s Beetlejuice Beetlejuice grossed $110 million for its opening weekend of haunted-house antics, the week’s biggest carnival-ride shock and exasperation came from conservative media observations about the Donald Trump and Kamala Harris debate. Conservatives are always surprised that mainstream media always display their bias.
David Muir and Linsey Davis, the ABC network moderators for last Tuesday’s presidential debate, are not journalists, but they play journalists on television. Who was unprepared for that?
The Muir-Davis deception was part of an ongoing media revolt against the electorate that has been boasted about in the trade press. But many refused to heed those reports as warnings.
