Apparently, your reading comprehension is a little off today, Irivertown.

You missed:
Now, I’m not saying that Democrats shouldn’t be allowed to ask questions in the debate. However, given that there were 5,000 entries – more than the Democrats – you’d think they could at least find Democrats who weren’t publicly declared activists for other candidates. Find some who either hide it, or who honestly haven’t decided.

I think most people would have been fine with the questions IF CNN had bothered disclosing the affiliations. They knew the candidates would for Grover, and if they didn’t, they would have explained, I’m sure. The same level of disclosure should exist for the Democrats as well.

Three years ago, a student who interned in an MSM TV newsroom as a fact-checker (I think NBC) wrote that she was told not to use Google to research. Probably still policy, and would these people show up on, say, Lexis-Nexis?

One plant is not all that objectionable to me. But multiples are.
