Salon - "CNBC did ask substantive questions. That’s why Republicans are mad"

39. Dr. Carson's discredited MLM marketing scam

is definitely not a proper question in a public policy debate. Public policy debate questions are for things like, oh I don't know, PUBLIC POLICY! I have an idea. Since they care so much about Carson's link to scam artists and since you're a news station why don't you assign a reporter and cover the story on your f#@king NEWS STATION that broadcasts 24 f#@king hours a day.

Now if another candidate wants to rip into Carson or any other candidate because they declared bankruptcy, didn't pay their credit cards on time, or lends their name to snake oil cures that's fair game. It's telling if they do and it's telling if they don't. But that's not the role of a moderator in a debate.

Debate questions should be able to be asked and answered by any and all of the candidates. Again it's a public policy debate. Not a debate of Trump's moral character. I don't need Jeb Bush's opinion on Trump to know he's an asshole. I want to know what are candidates positions on public policy issues. And if some dimwit news celebrity thinks I should know about the dirty dealings and moral character of these clowns how about doing some f#@king reporting on your 24 hour news channel about it instead of endless hours of inside the beltway know nothing pundits who spout opinions about what some other know nothing pundit said.
