Mme Sybarite;

I didn't think it was that clearly a display of an agenda. It was (imo) a display of stupidity-

I agree. I didn't see what many say was a slant against Obama. Just plain stupid questions on crap that we had already heard and makes no difference to what is important to the country. But isn't stupidity even worse than having an agenda? I have no problem watching Fox, because I know where they are coming from, but watching a stupid person is nothing but frustration. .....I kept yelling at the TV during the debate - ask a meaningful question.

I suspect I disagree.

Here I agree with Ed, that Charlie G and George S have agendas. But I've always seen their agendas as relatively controlled within the ethos of professional journalistic ethics.

Their debate work, however, was clearly not within that frame. So I'm having to rethink the frame: a bad session by them but one that is a one-off or a pattern of something I've missed.
