npub1rdx7hjfe64dwmxl29fea6ez7dmlt6wcaf5afxks7kr3dgky0dnlssgrum5 (npub1rdx…rum5) Town halls have never had a fact checking element. The format has always been Q&A with the host doing nothing in the light of fact checking...
So I think its fine to say "maybe we should change our traditional format and not do town hall type formats in the future and instead switch to a format where the host pushes back of fact checks and gives the candidate a chance to respond"... thats fair... but we have always given other candidates the ability to lie their ass off in these formats, so lets not get into the habit of complaining about the lack of fact checking **only** when its the candidates we hate and be ok with it when its the ones we like.
