Demands No Fact-Checking. WTF? [View all]

Trump Agrees to Debate Harris on Fox News, Demands No Fact-Checking

'Trump’s new terms also specify that the debate should follow the format of his previous debates with Biden, which notably excluded fact-checking and prevented moderators from challenging any inaccuracies during the debate.' -snip-

Posted the above snip from the article twice to let that sink in ...

What the actual living F%^K! And then you have the N.Y. times put it this way ... "Trump Agrees to a Fox News Debate With Harris on Sept. 4" -snip-

Not linking the NY Times article ... nope ... the media is lying by saying “Trump agrees” instead of “Trump offers alternative debate hosted by and filled with his sycophants”

This is not a Debate. This is not Journalism. This is not Normal.

This is all Propaganda! This is all Bullshit!

Have a nice day DU.
