I added to breaking news and front page news. This must stop. Good post.
THANK YOU! Many people can’t see media bias because they don’t understand the issues. This is the type of bias that should slap them in the face. It’s just maddening.
Amazing! What is it with the Republicans going along with this commission that appoints the debate moderators for each election anyway?
At this point, bias is just assumed.
I think that’s becoming more and more true but there are still many people (as much as we may want to diminish it) who do get their news from the MSM and believe it hook, line, and sinker.
She is awful.

This is unreal . More cowardly Republican insanity. Why the Republicans just willingly walk into these traps is beyond me ....
How about Sarah Palin brings this up during her debate!
“Hey Gwen, I understand you are coming out with your 4th(or whatever) book and it is about Obama’s rise in American politics. How wonderful! We have a War hero dedicated to this country, a minority , a woman, and then look at Biden and Senator Biden. Only in America”!
It’s not a conflict of interest to write a book. Depends entirely on the book’s contents.
Have you read it?
I doubt any of us have.
Obama is a terrible choice for President, but fact is that his candidacy is historic. It’s worth ink and paper.
Just because Ifill wrote a book, and just because she’s closely following the race, even if she votes for Obama on Nov. 4, she may well be a fair moderator for the debate.
Let’s give her a chance, then throw the stones if you’re unhappy afterward.
.
The Book is set to be released on Inaguration Day 1009.
She has a conflict of interest.
There is no way she should be allowed to moderate this debate.
Someone on the other thread I started on this had this response:
“Thank you Gwen, and thank you to the committee for the hard work in setting up this forum for the benefit of the American people. And congratulations to you, Gwen, on your upcoming book on Barack Obama’s breakthrough campaign. I’m sure Senator Obama is excited about it. Now, as to your question, blah blah blah...”.
She doesn’t have an interest in an Obama presidency when her “age of Obama” book releases on inauguration day?
“It’s not a conflict of interest to write a book.”
Hello? Do you have any idea how many more copies it will sell if he is elected?? Ifill has a vested interest in seeing to it that Gov. Palin blows this debate.
Thanks for bringing this to our attention. I hadn’t heard about this, and it is pretty disturbing ... not that I’m completely surprised or anything. I sent it to Drudge as well. Perhaps it will be up in time.
Or how many it won’t sell if he isn’t (other than those who want it as a collector’s item).
“Thank you Gwen, and thank you to the committee for the hard work in setting up this forum for the benefit of the American people.

PERFECT!
In THE BREAKTHROUGH, veteran journalist Gwen Ifill surveys the American political landscape, shedding new light on the impact of Barack Obama’s stunning presidential campaign and introducing the emerging young African American politicians forging a bold new path to political power.
What's unreal to me is how many folks like you don't even bother to criticize the liberal who is the problem here, but go straight to criticizing the GOP.
