CBS News is adopting a unique debate strategy that emphasizes candidate accountability over moderator intervention, encouraging candidates to fact-check each other during the debate.
Moderators Norah O'Donnell and Margaret Brennan will primarily facilitate discussions, allowing each candidate two minutes to respond and an additional minute for further rebuttals.
In contrast to ABC's approach of live fact-checking, CBS will utilize a separate team of forensic journalists and data experts to fact-check in real-time.
The goal of the CBS debate format is to foster a genuine debate atmosphere where candidates hold one another accountable rather than relying heavily on moderators.
