The debate format was dumb

Dear Readers.
How many of you found the debate format dumb? The California Broadcasters were in charge and insisted on it being their way.
Now Dan Weintraub of the Sac Bee says this may be the last debate.
Debates are not a bad idea; dumb formats are a bad idea.
It was a bad debate because the format was dumb. The moderator discouraged response and retort.
And, many of the questions were silly including those by the moderator.
I prefer a real debate. And let some real reporters ask questions. Lets get some reporters in the debates and the corporate media types out. Its our government.
