Sooooooo true
I laughed so hard when I read this from the SL Tribune.
If any of you have read anything on facebook during or after the debates you know exactly what Bagley is talking about.

I haven't heard anything. Isn't it a game time decision thing?
Well it's almost game time, now isn't it?

That's funny. But in all honesty, I'm not sure how anyone would think that the moderator didn't overstep her bounds.
Is it your position that the moderator should never ever intervene regardless of what the candidates say?
I'm not sure I agree with that. I think that's a recipe for false balance.
Unless they become vulgar, violent or something else the moderator needs to restrain themselves. Checking them on policy is pretty dumb.
Especially when they later say that the candidate was right.
I don't think she did correct him on policy. She corrected him on a "who said what" issue.
For example, do you think the moderator has an obligation to correct the record if Obama were to say "Mitt Romney said on national television yesterday that all black people are heathens who should be put to death." Should the moderator stay silent in that situation?
Yes. Mitt Romney can stand up for himself.
