NEW: ABC moderator Linsey Davis says the fact-checks of Donald Trump during the debate was retaliation for CNN not doing it during the June debate.
Davis said to the LA Times that she didn’t want Trump’s comments to just “hang” there.
“People were concerned that statements were allowed to just hang and not [be] disputed by the candidate Biden, at the time, or the moderators,” Davis said.
The moderators failed to fact check Harris once, including when she referred to the “fine people” hoax.
