CBS Says It's On Vance and Walz to Fact Check Each Other at VP Debate

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

77% : The 90-minute debate, helmed by Face the Nation host Margaret Brennan and CBS Evening News anchor Norah O'Donnell, will break from ABC's presidential debate held earlier this month when moderators stepped in to challenge false statements by former President Donald Trump.ABC co-moderators Linsey Davis and David Muir were praised by many for calmly interjecting to point out falsehoods, although conservatives alleged bias since Trump was mostly targeted (Trump has a consistent track record of deliberately making false claims in public appearances).CNN, which hosted the first presidential debate of the campaign cycle between Trump and President Joe Biden -- who dropped out of the race following a disastrous performance -- was put on the defensive for allowing the Republican nominee to repeatedly make false statements without being challenged.
