NEWS: CNN Turns A Presidential Debate Into A Fucking Joke

Yeah, it was sloppy, but I'm not quite getting the outrage or how this demonstrates bias.

Do you think his question was unfair? If not, what does it matter who asked it?

CNN looks incompetent, not biased.

I think Evil McCain needs to grow his goatee out so that we can tell he's from the mirror universe.

Good idea. It's worked for others ...

That needs photoshopping so badly.

I don't like the gameshow backdrop...

needs evil eyebrows

if you don't already think his eyebrows are evil...

God bless you, sir.

Meh. It's a bit of a tu quoque but asking for non-fucktardedness in TV news is a bit of a tall order. I wish more US cable services would pick up BBC 24 Hour.

I watched a few replays of the debate this weekend because I like watching these idiots lose. Of course, I'm not psyched at the prospect of President Hillary...

To be honest, I think CNN set the candidates up to look stupid by throwing nitwit questions at them and then giving them too little time to answer.

I mean really, in one of the video questions the guy asks about gun control and then someone THROWS HIM A RIFLE from off camera, he cocks it, and then says "Don't worry, you can answer however you like".

Hilarious.

I am always amused when gun lobbyists demonstrate they aren't responsible gun owners.

Quite so. And in fairness, Duncan Hunter was quick to point out that throwing a firearm like that is unsafe, but the whole episode just struck me as a perfect example of the characteristic dumbfuckery of the YouTube debate format.

Nah, we'd probably still just argue most of the time. That's why we're here, after all Then a troll would get killed, and we'd have a big debate about whether or not a troll is considered a real person, and wrap it up by calling eachother "morans" and trying to flag eachother. Then we'd go get drunk.

Come to think of it, let's buy an island!

Oh, we get it. But most cable boxes and satellites have a block function, so it all evens out in the end
