ABC News Fact-checked Trump 7 Times; Never Fact-checked Kamala Once
SUMMARY
During Tuesday’s presidential debate, ABC News moderators Linsey Davis and David Muir fact-checked former President Donald Trump on at least seven occasions, but did not address any inaccuracies from Vice President Kamala Harris. The moderators corrected Trump on several points, including claims about late-term abortion legality and violent crime trends, often providing incomplete or inaccurate information. Davis and Muir also intervened to clarify Trump's statements about election results and immigration-related issues. However, despite Harris making several questionable claims, such as the "very fine people" controversy, the moderators did not offer similar scrutiny. This one-sided approach has raised concerns about the fairness and impartiality of the debate coverage.
