CBS News says it will be up to Vance and Walz to fact-check each other in veep debate

So what the fuck do we need CBS for again?

Heaven forbid journalists do... you know, their jobs?

Weak.

C'mon, CBS. The ghost of Cronkite might have to visit you.

Vance isn’t Trump. He’s a wet noodle who can barely work his way through a sentence. Walz is an adorable teddy bear with claws.

It’ll be the cutest bloodbath we’ve ever seen, and we’ll all laugh about how the old guy from Minnesota made the dude wearing eyeliner get scared of giving trans school kids free lunches.

Edit: I can’t wait!

Extremists (hint: not Tim Walz) will be able to just spout lies the whole time, and rational, honest candidates: (hint: not JD Vance) will have to either let them get away with complete bullshit assertions, or spend part of their time doing the job of the moderators... This is why no one believes in Journalism these days...

Fucking cowards. We saw how quickly fascists crumble when you fact check them. Why won’t CBS want to do that?

Bunch of weak ass bullshit.

CBS not doing their job.

Ya this is a dumb move by CBS because it compromises the legitimacy of the debate... But I know Tim Walz is going to wipe the floor with this couch fucker.

*CBS is announcing that it will allow the Couchfucker to Gish Gallop.

Fixed that title for you.

Remember when journalism was a respected profession?

CBS is owned by Paramount Global who splits their "donations" between parties (heavier toward Democrats). Are we tired of being governed by corporations, yet?

Fucking candy asses. Call Kyle Clark. He will show those absolute wieners how it’s done.

"We just want the money, leave us the fuck out of this. We're a news corporation. What did you expect, integrity? Ha!"

-CBS

Waltz: Vance I heard you fuck couches for fun.

Vance: NO I DON'T

Waltz: That's not proof. If you're gonna fact check me you gotta provide proof! Clearly you fucked couches!

So Walz will try to find the lies and Vance will claim everything is a lie since they can't stop him?

Oh sure, tell the guy who basically said "We'll make up whatever facts we need to to get our point across!" when the whole pet eating debacle was debunked that he won't be fact checked... What could go wrong!?

Facts? Integrity? What the hell are you talking about? We need a ratings bump.

CBS executives, probably.

Anyway Walz is gonna eat Vance's face for dinner and then shit down his throat hole. I look forward to catching the highlights reel online.

Those were some of the best moments though! When the Linsey Davis (moderator) deadpan said, “There is no state in this country where it is legal to kill a baby after it’s born." I fell off my couch laughing at Trump. He didn't know what to do, he was like a fish out of water.

I guess the GOP made it a deal breaker for the VP debate.

Awww the moderator’s hurt poor Donnie’s fee fees during the last debate.

Would they really have the time to fact-check the gish-gallop Vance will ejaculate on them? That's just not even feasible to get through the more egregious lies. He already said he just makes shit up. This will be the largest public face-time he will ever have (hopefully) and it all but guarantees he will shamelessly dial the horseshit up, if not just for sound bites.

And yeah, I decided to use that word.

Walz should just bring a fucking airhorn

So CBS news has zero integrity.

Walz should quote Vance's statement about making things up and make the point that he will not be fact checking someone who is on record stating they will lie. Even make the minguistic point that while Vance said he'd "make stuff up" there is another word for that: "lie".

"So since my opponent has alresdy admitted they lie to reporters and about the price of eggs, I ask that the viewers tonight know that we can't trust anything he says is true. He has no credibility."

Oh, so we're playing street ball now.

No holds barred free for all. I like it. This is going to be an amazing debate. Midwest against I have no idea what the hell Vance is.

I hope Vance starts off with some of his amazing jokes /s

This would he concerning if I wasn't convince that Walz would sit him down and correct him like a disappointed father.

If anyone could make a politician seem like a child to their face it'd be him, and especially if that politician is Vance.

so theyre gonna let trump lie to his hearts content and walz is just gonna have to listen to him.

Is the journalist in the room with us?

The 90-minute debate, scheduled for 9 p.m. Eastern on Tuesday in a Manhattan studio that once hosted the children’s program "Captain Kangaroo,”

Such an easy set up for Vance to call the moderators a "kangaroo court" if they get on his case.

holy shit there is going to be a veep debate?! the last pres one was hilarious and awesome.
