For Democrats, Debate Night Means Being Quizzed From the Right by Corporate Media

The drone war was ignored by the moderators, as were civilian casualties. The disastrous consequences of the Libyan intervention that Clinton presided over was brought up at one point, but the premise of the question was that Clinton “should have done more to fill the leadership vacuum left behind”—not that the secretary of State shouldn’t have been using military force to overthrow governments she disliked.

Even though the world’s leaders had reached a landmark climate change just a week before the debate, “climate change” and “global warming” didn’t pass the moderators’ lips.

ABC News‘ approach to domestic issues was not much different. Raddatz pressed on the cost of a single-payer healthcare plan–“Can you tell us specifically how much people will be expected to pay?”—and on his plan to make public colleges tuition-free: “How does that really lower the cost other than just shifting the cost to taxpayers?” She tried to get Clinton and O’Malley to promise not to raise takes on households making $250,000 or less—in other words, families who make more than 97 percent of the country.
