VP moderator, Gwen Ifill, is biased and doesn’t care if you know it

The moderator of tomorrow's much-hyped showdown between Senator Joe Biden (D) and Gov. Sarah Palin (R) is putting out a book that promises to "shed new light" on Sen. Barack Obama.

The book's release date is being timed to coincide with the election of this country's new leader on Nov. 4.

Gwen Ifill is confident that Mr. Obama has the election in the bag. But should the moderator of such an important debate show such blatant bias towards one party? Couldn't she wait until after the debate to announce this book of hers?

Apparently, Ifill doesn't care if we know she's biased. She has faced criticism before for not treating candidates of both major parties the same.

During 2004's vice-presidential debate -- which Ifill moderated -- there was an intense exchange between Democrat John Edwards and Republican Dick Cheney.

Cheney asked Ifill for more time to rebut Edwards accusations because 30 seconds wasn't enough.

"Well, that's all you've got!" she snapped at Cheney. Later, Ifill told the Associated Press that the Democrats were "delighted' with her answer.

And viewers of PBS' Washington Week, which Ifill hosts, reported a "look of disgust" on Ifill's face when she reported on Sarah Plain's speech during the Republican National Convention. (Source)

    Ifill will do great tomorrow!...Palin has been cramming all week for this debate, if she's not ready the Republicans will see how inexperience she is as a VP candidate.

  • lovezoe

    Well, I highly doubt that they are going to change moderators before tomorrow. McCain himself could be the moderator and she still will sound like a clueless twit.

  • PAGESINADIARY

    hesselbeck on the view is just like this!

  • editorialgirl

    Ifill has to deal with a lot, the last thing she needs to worry about is a blog calling her biased. Like every journalist, one has to vote. By stating Obama has the election in the bag,is this because she wants him to win or is this a hypothesis? In 2004, I stated George W. Bush WOULD win. Is this because I wanted him to win? Not so much. But, I made a guess and got it right.

    I don't remember the VP debate from last year, but if the dude only had 30 seconds like the OTHER dude, then you only have 30 seconds. That's not biased. That's right.

  • The Divine Ms. K

    So, would the outcry be the same if the moderator were someone sympathetic to the Republicans? Bill O'Reilly nor Hannity were available I guess.

    And there are time limits on how long people have to speak and rebut during debates - maybe all he DID have was 30 seconds.

  • lovezoe

    Did anyone see the View today, I really think Hassleback days are limited, she snapped off at Barbara. She is just something else, she will not even admit that Palin is coming up with crazy answers.

    OOOOOOOHHHHHH Lovezoe, I've been gunning for Elizabeth to get the boot for years now. She annoys me to the point I have to turn the channel. AND ALWAYS GOT SOMETHING TO SAY...

  • http://myspace.com/thegameoncw Bird

    I have never heard of her or her book. She was selected as the moderator despite her views which you say are pretty clear so why complain about it now. If they have 30 seconds to answer it is her job to hold them to it. Did John Edwards ask for more time to answer and she gave it to him? I don't think so.

    On thing's for sure, Sarah Palin won't be asking for more time because she won't know the damn answers anyway.

  • Mzsuave

    Cosign w/Bird. The debate should be very interesting. So Ifill is biased....no different than any other McCaint supporters being biased. Who cares, she knows who she is voting for.

  • keely107

    This will be hilarious, Palin and Biden, is she for real? I will have my snacks ready for the entertainment.

    There is two sides to this story...obviously Sandra wants to report on one.....!! This book is about other powerful Black Politicians as well...obviously it would include OBAMA..as he is the most sucessful Black Politician of our time...if OBAMA wins or not...this book appears to be a good read...I've followed Gwen Ifill for years.....She's an excellent journalist....I will definitely purchase this book....for more information on this book..go here:

  • stefany

    So what Sandra,

    She's just as bias as you are with your dislike of Obama for no good reason besides the fact that he is a man..But personally I won't underestimate Palin in Thursday's debate for the simple fact the McCain Campaign is a group of sneaky, back handed mothf**kers that will do anything to win.

    There are only about 7 weeks left until the election, an election that

    will decide the next President of the United States. The person elected

    will be the president of all Americans, not just the Democrats or the

    Republicans. To show our solidarity as Americans, let's all get together

    and show each other our support for the candidate of our choice. It's

    time that we come together, Democrats and Republicans alike. If you

    support the policies and character of Senator Obama, please drive with

    your headlights on during the day. If you support John McCain, please

    drive with your headlights off at night. Thank you for your participation.

    Well lets see:

    1. He blantanly stole Barack's Change slogan
    2. He picked any ole woman as his running mate to pick up Hillary supporters with no regard to whether she was qualified or not.
    3. He continued to run ads when he said his campaign was suspended.
    4. He tried to use the bailout plan to his advantage by implying that he was working around the clock to pass it. (The bailout plan is not even a good thing)
    5. When Sarah Palin went back to Katie Couric to clear up the mess of her first interview he had the nerve to go with her like some overprotective father and made her look like even more of a fool.
    6. He cheated on and left his wife for the newer, richer, younger, prettier one.

    Shall I go on with this man's sleaze?

    Ok what about that low brow ad comparing Barack to Paris and Brit Brit. Then he has the nerve to go out and get an unqualified running mate with her own star power.

  • iyonah

    Well I never knew of Biden or Palin before now so I look forward to hearing both of them express their views in a debate forum. Regardless of who is moderating the event, the person who is able to address the topics will emerge as the victor regardless of the slant implied by whoever.

    Everyone writes books these days, I am sure her take on Obama may shed light to some people.

    Starr,

    I don't think you have to worry about the debate being fair. The moderator only asks questions which I'm sure are pre-approved by someone.

  • Mississippi16

    Palin is going to do much better than anybody is giving her credit for. She has been studying like a maniac. She's not going to sound as idiotic as she did the first time. They probably have every tutor, teacher, boyscout and advisor that they can find working wtih her.

  • Mzsuave

    ^^^Let them ask her a question outside of the norm, a question she hasn't been studying....see how she reacts. That's what I'm waiting to see.

  • bklynchick

    Well, it will be very interesting to say the least. All I have been hearing on the news is how Palin is cramming for the debate tomorrow. Which I find to be crazy?? Palin doesn't know anything about foreign policy, why her son is fighting the war in Iraq (Bush Doctrine) and what newspapers she reads. Every single time she opens her mouth and talks nothing comes out but junk. Biden is very aggressive and long winded so I hope he tones that down and he should be okay. As far as Elisabeth she makes me sick and lives in a fantasy world. She always make excuses for McOld and Pathetic.

    VOTE OBAMA!!!

And calling sarah palin unqualified, how would you know her qualifications an dif they are enough to warrant her as president, what did you think george washington did with his life that made him any more qualified?
    If he wants to accompany Sarah palin why cant he, and the attacks about his wife, umm how would you know where can i find video proof or any real evidence of your slander and defamation of our future president

    Ok Charles. I'm going to entertain you one more time and that's it. Here is the part of my list that are facts, not opinion. Can you explain these facts away?

    1. He blantanly stole Barack’s Change slogan
    3. He continued to run ads when he said his campaign was suspended.
    4. He tried to use the bailout plan to his advantage by implying that he was working around the clock to pass it.
    5. When Sarah Palin went back to Katie Couric to clear up the mess of her first interview he had the nerve to go with her like some overprotective father and made her look like even more of a fool.

    Ok what about that low brow ad comparing Barack to Paris and Brit Brit. Then he has the nerve to go out and get an unqualified running mate with her own star power.

    And let me add one more thing.

    He graduated from high school by the skin of his teeth and still got into the Naval Academy on the strength of his father's position in the military. He graduated from the academy 4th from the bottom and still got one of the best jobs in the military on the strength of his father's position and guess what happened to the poor dumb ass unqualified pilot? He got captured.

    CAN YOU EXPLAIN THESE THINGS or are you going to come back with weak a$$ excuses again?

  • editorialgirl

    To quote the last paragrah from the gawker link:

    Is the McCain campaign trying to turn the obvious "shoot the moderator" tactics it just pulled on Katie Couric into a full-blown strategy? If so, as Media Matters points out, it's got some holes, not least because recent years have seen debates moderated by the likes of Bob Schieffer, a close personal friend of George W. Bush whose brother was a business partner of Bush's before the Supreme Court voted him president. Also, Tom Brokaw loves John McCain. But at the end of the day, would either of those guys make Sarah Palin sound any readier to navigate the collapse of our banking system or any number of our fragile Middle Eastern frenemy states? Yeah: no.

    My problem with this whole issue is that they are representing her book as a book about Barack Obama, and that is not the whole story. Her book is about black politicians and how the Civil Rights movement impacted opportunities available to them. I haven't read her book, But I am sure if she looking at black in politics, she is covering most if not all blacks, which would include democrats and republicans. Yes, the book will have probably have more Dems then Reps, but only becasue there are more black dems than Reps.

    I honestly think this is non-issue and many reporters also write non-fiction novels about Politics and history. Gwen Ifil is no different. Just another set-up/excuse in case Palin fails (thought I doubt she will).

    2) Ok he was suspending HIMSELF from campaigning not running ads which is planned weeks ahead of time
    3) No he didnt he said that him and barack should help create a bi partisan agreement which is honorable of him
    4) she is his VP candidate why canno the not come with her
    5) You have no idea of why he left his old wife that is something personal, are you psychic?

    We did survive, blacks survived years of being tortured through the Civil Rights Movement, so fu*k McCain's POW story..Our people lived through some of the worse possible shyt that could be done to a human being, the bombings of our homes and churches, murder and torture of our black men & children, getting beat by police, put in jail, sprayed with hoses, bit by dogs, spit on, basically treated like damn animals..McCain's POW story means nothing to me, while he was war in vietnam black people were at war right here in out own country in the streets of Birmingham, Selma, and Montgomery Alabama dying for a real cause, and we're still at war today for those same reasons that's why I'm voting for BARACK OBAMA 08!!!!!

    I have only one thing to say to Charles, Sandra and their ilk...

    The bailout plan did not pass because the Neocons didn't garner enough votes...

    And now people in this country are so pissed...the Neocons are slated to even lose SEVERAL seats in the House and Senate (I'm not calling the Neocons Republicans because they don't deserve to wash Eisenhower's dirty jock straps)...

    So, I will speak to you all after the election...and while you're at it...why don't you pick up a history book and take a look at legacy...and the legacy that the Democrats leave the country and the Neocons the country...and also, take a look at the social/economical climate of the country whenever a Democrat runs...

Then the king will say to those at His right hand, “Come, you that are blessed by my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world; for I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and you gave me clothing, I was sick and you took care of me, I was in prison and you visited me.” ... “Truly I tell you, just as you did it to one of the least of these who are members of my family, you did it to me.”

    Then He will say to those at His left hand, “You that are accursed, depart from me into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels; for I was hungry and you gave me no food, I was thirsty and you gave me nothing to drink, I was a stranger and you did not welcome me, naked and you did not give me clothing, sick and in prison and you did not visit me.” ... “Truly I tell you, just as you did not do it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to me.” And these will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life. (Matthew 25:31-36, 40-43, 45-46 NRSV

    have only one thing to say to Charles, Sandra and their ilk…

    The bailout plan did not pass because the Neocons didn’t garner enough votes…

    And now people in this country are so pissed…the Neocons are slated to even lose SEVERAL seats in the House and Senate (I’m not calling the Neocons Republicans because they don’t deserve to wash Eisenhower’s dirty jock straps)…

    So, I will speak to you all after the election…and while you’re at it…why don’t you pick up a history book and take a look at legacy…and the legacy that the Democrats leave the country and the Neocons the country…and also, take a look at the social/economical climate of the country whenever a Democrat runs…

    Gwen Ifill disclosed this info over a month ago to Howard Kurtz in an interview. This is an attempt once again for the Palin camp to divert attention from her lack of knowledge as it relates to politics and world issues.
