So did Lester Holt do a good job in Monday night's debate? He interrupted Donald Trump 41 times either to "fact check" the candidate or to ask a follow up question. He only interrupted Clinton 7 times. Does that seem fair? Learn more about your ad-choices at https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

| So, as expected, Monday night's presidential debate moderator, Lester Holt, while he couldn't exactly hide his bias towards Hillary Clinton, as the Daily Caller points out, Holt interrupted Trump a whopping 41 times either to fact-check the Republican nominee or to ask follow-up questions. | |
| Clinton, she was only interrupted seven times during the course of the 90-minute debate. | |
| Now, the so-called NBC journalist interrupted Trump 10 times during an exchange about the GOP nominee's position on the Iraq war and demanded at least five times why Trump thought he had better judgment than Clinton. | |
| A Breitbart analysis of the debate transcript notes that Lester Holt only asked six questions directed at both candidates. | |
| Other than that, the moderator asked 15 questions exclusively of Trump and only two of Hillary Clinton. | |
| Holt should be ashamed of himself. |
