While fact-checking has become a norm in modern political discourse, Owens claimed that the moderators focused excessively on Trump, allowing Kamala Harris to avoid scrutiny for some of her own statements.
“They treated Kamala Harris like a guest on The View—all softball questions and free passes,” Owens said in a follow-up video posted to her YouTube channel. “Meanwhile, Trump couldn’t get two words out before they jumped in to fact-check him. It was a joke.”
Owens’ critique of the debate moderation has resonated with many on the right, who argue that the mainstream media has long been biased in favor of Democrats. Her comments have quickly gone viral, sparking a flurry of responses from both her supporters and those who vehemently disagree with her stance.
