Chairman Reince Priebus has acted in the wake of a CNBC debate where candidates were hectored by a panel of liberals.
The Republican National Committee has pulled out of a planned Feb. 26 debate with NBC News after widespread criticism of this week’s CNBC debate from both the party and campaigns.
“We are suspending the partnership with NBC News for the Republican primary debate at the University of Houston on February 26, 2016,” RNC Chairman Reince Priebus wrote in a letter to NBC News Chairman Andrew Lack.
“CNBC network is one of your media properties, and its handling of the debate was conducted in bad faith,” Priebus wrote.
Candidates commented on the tone of the questions several times. The moderators were supposed to lead with opening statements, but instead asked candidates to express their weakness. Noticeably fed up candidates like John Kasich simply ignored the request. Later on, Chris Christie and Ted Cruz both made comments about the tenor and tone of things.
If it’s this bad now, imagine how things will be when the media starts helping Hillary?
