NEW: ABC moderator Linsey Davis says the fact-checks of Donald Trump during the debate was retaliation for CNN not doing it during the June debate.
Davis said to the LA Times that she didn’t want Trump’s comments to just “hang” there.
The moderators also studied hours of Trump rallies and interviews to be ready to counter him.
“People were concerned that statements were allowed to just hang and not [be] disputed by the candidate Biden, at the time, or the moderators,” Davis said.
The moderators failed to fact check Harris once, including when she referred to the “fine people” hoax.

In response to Mike Chilton for Publication
Moderators should not be able to have any opinions or be bias to any debater. This is an excuse to justify her position for attacking Trump! It’s not her or David Muir responsibility to put their bias attacks on Trump. There is no reason except to put more hatred out there for him. If the tables were turned everyone would be yelling how unfair it was. This country has turned for the worst with the present leader (who ever that is) and the press!
