CBS News has chosen to be a cowardly entertainment company, not a journalism organization, in its cavalier decision not to do any fact-checking in the VP debate next week.
This is an invitation for Vance -- as prolific a liar as Trump -- to flood the zone with bullshit. There's not enough time in a day, much less 90 minutes, for Walz to refute the lies and make his own points.
CBS knows this, and put its thumb on the scale anyway.
