| Clinton Camp Demands HUGE CHANGE For Upcoming Presidential Debate |
| 2016-09-10 |
| [Daily Caller] Media Matters founder David Brock wrote a letter to the Commission on Presidential Debates Friday, demanding the "non-partisan" organization remove Fox News' Chris Wallace as moderator of the third and final presidential debate. Brock, one of Hillary Clinton's highest-profile supporters, wrote to Co-Chairmen Frank Fahrenkopf and Michael McCurry that it is inappropriate for "Roger Ailes, who resigned from Fox News in July, [to] simultaneously [provide] advice to Donald Trump while serving as a paid adviser to Fox News chief Rupert Murdoch, debate moderator Chris Wallace's boss." Brock also expressed his concern over "Chris Wallace’s explicit pronouncement that he doesn’t intend to press the candidates to be truthful during the debate he moderates." "I am disappointed that an organization that prides itself on being non-partisan would make such a selection," he continued. "I would respectfully ask that you reconsider your selection of Chris Wallace -- or any current Fox News employee -- as a presidential debate moderator until Donald Trump and Rupert Murdoch cut ties with Roger Ailes." |

| #11 OK, go with someone who isn't a Fox employee: Rush Limbaugh. Or Matt Drudge. |

| #5 I'd like to know the pharmaceutical cocktail she gets before the debate, if there is a debate. If she seizes, has an extended coughing spell, or needs a 30-minute break, this thing may be over. |

| #4 Also, add radio noise to confuse the earbud wearer. |

| #3 My vote is that John Bolton be the moderator. |

| #2 She does not want to debate Trump. She will likely gain nothing from it. If she goes through with it, which is in doubt, perhaps she will be unable to stand and be forced to assume a reclining position. |

| #1 ok, get George Stephanopoulos in there as the pinch hitter, after all, he is sooooo objective. Hell, just resurrect Olbermann, he needs a gig. I keep hearing about how "it's a choice between bad and worse" - well, it's a choice between this and this |
