I'm glad you enjoyed my joke. Since I didn't see the commentator, I cannot give an informed answer to your question. However, as a general comment, people on TV should exercise more responsibility in what they say than people on chat rooms. So I don't see a true parallel.

<<1) Was she right to say that?>> No

<<2) Was the moderator wrong to challenge the conclusion she had drawn and presented as an attribution>> Probably. It would depend on the roles of the moderator and panel and how closely the moderator was calling the game.

<<3) Were the allies of the speaker wrong not to defend her statement as 'fair comment,' and 'conclusion' based on 'extrapolation'?>> No
