Should We Trust CNN And YouTube In The Debate Wednesday Night?

Posted by: Duane Patterson at 8:01 PM

On July 26th of this year, Hugh warned against the wisdom of GOP candidates participate in a CNN/YouTube debate format. One day later, I posted one of the early YouTube debate question entries, which reinforced Hugh's concerns.

After a brief debate about whether or not Republican candidates should participate in this type of format, it was eventually agreed to and a date was set for Wednesday, November 28th. A day ahead of the debate, Hugh was joined on the radio show by Steve Grove, director of news and politics for YouTube.

It is an interview that has to be heard, not read. Here it is.

As you listen, ask yourself if you trust CNN and YouTube to put together an honest, thoughtul and fair debate between the GOP presidential candidates.

Can't trust CNN
Sorry, but you can't trust the Clinton News Network (CNN) to provide a fair debate. They have already in no disclosed terms selected the canidate they wish to back for POTUS.
