ABC News‘ David Muir and Linsey Davis faced intense backlash online during Tuesday night’s presidential debate for their obvious bias against Republican nominee Donald Trump.
The bias manifested itself in several ways, from asking Trump more hostile “gotcha” questions than they asked Harris to pressing Trump with followup questions while allowing Harris to evade answering questions with no followup to fact checking Trump while allowing Harris to lie with impunity.
ABC News’ left-wing bias was on full display during the network’s pre-debate coverage, with media analyst Stephen L. Miller noting: “ABC’s pre-debate coverage might as well be The View right now. It’s insane.”
“In media file center they’ve been blaring the sound of ABCs pre-debate coverage. Except when Tom Cotton was just on. Sound went way down, couldn’t hear a word,” added RealClearPolitics President Tom Bevan. “Josh Shapiro comes on and the sound was turned back up. Unreal.”
Once the debate started, the bias quickly went on display with former Acting Director of National Intelligence Richard Grenell calling Davis a “far-left activist.”
