    Televised Implosion - by Heather Digby Parton [alternet.org]

    the big loser last night wasn’t any of the candidates. According to the shrieking malcontents in the GOP, led by Ted Cruz, it was that notorious “liberal media” outfit CNBC.

    That’s right, the big-moneyed Wall Street fan club that features the likes of Rick “Tea Party” Santelli and Lawrence Kudlow is nothing more than a mouthpiece for the socialist Democratic party. Who knew?

    There was plenty to criticize about the CNBC punditry before the debate. Their casual commentary was painfully soporific and politically obtuse, undoubtedly helping the TV audience gain new appreciation for the deep insights of Don Lemon and Gretchen Carlson. But the moderators’ questions and adversarial attitude were thoroughly appropriate. They were very pointed in their questions, calling the candidates on past comments and pressing them to explain themselves. The candidates, the party, and the right wing media did not like it one bit.
    [...]
    no one was more overwrought about all those left-wing liberals at CNBC than Republican Party Chairman Reince Preibus, who said, “I think it was one gotcha question, one personal low blow after the other. It’s almost like they tried to design a Rubik’s cube for every question,” before leaving the spin room in a huff.

    Gee. A no-softballs event.
    I'm almost sorry I missed it.
