For Thursday's presidential debate, CNN has implemented strict rules including no live audience, no opening statements, muted microphones, and no props. Moderators will enforce timing and a civilized discussion, aiming to prevent chaos and misinformation incidents as seen in previous events.
There is uncertainty on how moderators will handle disruptive behavior during the debate such as Trump stalking the stage or candidates interrupting. CNN faced backlash for losing control during previous events, showing the high stakes for the network in maintaining order and ensuring factual discussions.
The lack of a live fact-checking plan raises concerns on how falsehoods will be curtailed during the debate. Past incidents of misinformation by candidates, like Trump spewing lies, highlight the importance of ensuring accuracy and transparency in such high-profile events.
