New debate, new thread. (Unfortunately somewhat late as the debate was streamed right at the time I wrote this post.)
The debate was being live streamed in CBS's channel in YouTube.
Twitter is one of the debate partners so expect a few questions from there.
The south Carolina primaries are due February 29th and there willl be no more debates until after super tuesday so this debate is pretty important.

I find this to be a pretty important question when news organizations like Fox News are literally aiming to help the Republican Party to stay on power, CNN and MSNBC promote centrist candidates and media aggregators ranging from r/the_donald to r/chapotraphouse banning anyone who opposes them. Thing is, these are the most well known examples. How could we tell faulty media sources and aggregators apart from good ones in mass? Do you think that's possible?
