ABC News is denying the extraordinary allegations there was collusion between the presidential debate moderators and Vice President Kamala Harris' campaign.
'Absolutely not,' an ABC News spokesperson told the Daily Beast. 'Harris was not given any questions before the debate.'
Former President Donald Trump and his MAGA allies have stoked conspiracy theories that Harris had a leg up in the debate. Most polling showed that Americans believed Harris had the more commanding performance onstage Tuesday night in Philadelphia.

I don't believe the polling and I don't believe the ABC spokesman. I also don't believe she had a more 'commanding' perfomance!

Another left-wing publication who immediately say that MAGA people are spouting a conspiracy theory about collusion. It's not a conspiracy theory until the conspiracy is proven to be untrue. From what Linsey Davis told the LA Times, they might not have directly given her the questions, but they set it up for Kamala and against Trump from the beginning. God, this pisses me off.

Allegations. We fall victim to (potentially) false stories too. Wait for confirmation from the alleged whistleblower.

FROM POST BELOW:
ABC News anchor Linsey Davis revealed in a post-debate Los Angeles Times puff-piece profile how she, ABC World News Tonight anchor David Muir and ABC producers schemed to ambush President Trump with ‘fact checks’ at Tuesday night’s presidential debate in Philadelphia with Kamala Harris after watching Trump crush and knock Joe Biden out of the race in their June debate. (Photos) The fact checking at the debate was one-sided, with Trump being interrupted by Muir and Davis several times with ‘fact checks’ while Harris was not ‘fact checked’ once

Did they deny that the Harris campaign gave ABC a list of subjects to ask QueMala?

DM carrying the water for Harris and ABC. The best thing about these “extraordinary” articles from DM is that the comments section is always, always about 90% conservative.

I'm capable of waiting for confirmation of the story, as well as remembering that Donna Brazil, formerly at CNN, admitted to forwarding debate questions to Hillary prior to the events. I'll also keep in mind that ABC didn't inform debate viewers that Kamala Harris and Debate Host Linsey Davis were sorority sisters. I don't understand why Ms. Davis was allowed to "fact check" President Trump, who correctly stated that Ms. Harris supported taxpayer funded gender surgeries for prisoners and non-citizens. This is a story that goes back to at least 2019, and if her position has changed, she should have said so during the debate.

Watch the weasel words. The didn't give the questions too Harris. But, did they give the questions to some unnamed flunky that may or may not be part of the Harris campaign?

When people on Face boo posted questions about Kamala wearing earphones embedded in her earrings it was simply a question. An ad for the company who maes them appeared in the questioning post. I searched to see if the company really existed, it does, and they had pictures of the earrings existed for years before the debate. The earrings are identical.
Rather than having an investigation, FB declared that the observation was false, (Because Kamala said so) and forbid further posting. Posters had their posts removed.
Because of the censoring, now I believe they were earphones and it doesn't surprise me at all.

What I saw was not a debate. That's why it was turned off after 30 minutes. Fact checkers are the biggest liars out there hiding under the mantle of truth-teller. Disgusting.

Of course, they denied giving the questions to QueMALASutra.
And, of course, they did.
I watched off and on until QueMALASutra started telling the debunked Charlottesville lie. From what everyone has said since, she wasn't "fact-checked" even on that!

The point is, with such huge advantages, she still couldn't hit it off the park.

Do you think that the politicized ABC big wigs would admit such collusion with the leftist and progressive Democrat candidate and her crew? The facts must speak for themselves.
