CBS News Says It Will Be Up To Vance And Walz To Fact-Check Each Other In Veep Debate
In other words, Vance will be allowed to spew a firehose of lies with no pushback from “moderators,”
the Trump campaign lost the last debate so badly that they pivoted to “moderators doing their jobs are being unfair to us” and #CBS caved like goddamn cowards

It's pretty easy to fact check either Vance or Trump. Just declare anything they say is unfactual and challenge them to prove it. They can't.

Not cowards... Complicit...
No fact check? But going to watch...

"CBS News Says It Will Be Up To Vance And Walz To Fact-Check Each Other In Veep Debate"
This is bullshit. Candidates can't fact check each other- because the audience won't believe one side or the other.
The "moderators" are supposed to represent the FACTS as much as possible.
I can't believe in this age- we can't real-time fact check. Even if it's not possible... it could be tracked and then have a 2 min update to reveal results during the debate.
