ALERT: White House Correspondents Association says CNN is keeping the press' neutral pool camera OUT of tonight's Presidential Debate. WHCA states that:

WHCA is deeply concerned that CNN has rejected our repeated requests to include the White House travel pool inside the studio. Through conversations and advocacy, we urged CNN to grant access to at least one print pool reporter for the duration of the debate. WHCA has been informed that one print reporter will be permitted to enter the studio during a commercial break to briefly observe the setting. That is not sufficient in our view and diminishes a core principle of presidential coverage. The White House pool has a duty to document, report and witness the president’s events and his movements on behalf of the American people.

The pool is there for the “what ifs?” in a world where the unexpected does happen.

The pool reporter works on behalf of the entire White House press corps. Print pool reports are an important part of the historical record. Further, the pool is screened by the US Secret Service and travels with the president on Air Force One so there is no security issue. The Biden campaign told WHCA it supports our request. The Trump campaign told WHCA it would not oppose the inclusion of the White House pool reporter. The Trump campaign has a separate press corps.

Tonight’s debate will have no audience present and includes format rules that can silence candidates’ microphones. We don’t know how this will play out in real time. A pool reporter is there to observe what is said and done when microphones are off or when either candidate is not seen on camera but may speak, gesture, move, or engage in some way.

WHCA believes this principle of coverage matters. The White House travel pool has been included in past presidential debates and we believe that standard of access is essential.
Precedent matters for future debates.

I don't trust this retard, he's asking fucking ChatGPT about a broadcast delay. Does he have any source other than "dude trust me"?

Probably not. But there is something fucky with the press not being allowed in the same building as the debate. And that lady has also complained about it as well.

It would be wise to remember @Meat Target's law: "if they're denying, they're lying"

I'd kill to see an accounting of the dosages of amphetamines, Namenda, Aricept, etc they're having to force feed this fucking embarrassment so he can function on the debate stage. The Walter Reed pharmacy must be on diversion right now.

Bro, they got shit you can’t even comprehend.
They’re gonna have this nigga on drugs that haven’t even been named. They don’t even know the side effects, they just need to get this literal cadaver up and moving enough to show up, and the media will have to clean the mess afterwards.

Hopefully they stream it on their youtube page. But its too early to tell.

Edit: there's gonna be users on X streaming it most likely. since Elon told CNN to blow it out their ass with the DMCA takedowns.

They didn't answer his question.
Ya it goes on at 9pm.

But is there a tape delay or not?

7 seconds is reasonable for live NETWORK tv in case someone drops the F bomb or jennet jackson slips a nipple. Maybe keep it around for tech fuckups on cable.
But there is absolutely no reason for a 1-2 min delay on Cable TV. Trump could whip his dick out while Biden starts chanting nigger and the FCC can't say a thing. They want 2 min delay to smooth out Biden via editing. Simple as.
