MSNBC announced on Wednesday that the next debate in the Democratic presidential primaries will be moderated by an all-female panel.
MSNBC hosts Rachel Maddow and Andrea Mitchell, Washington Post reporter and MSNBC analyst Ashley Parker, and NBC News White House correspondent Kristen Welker will moderate the fifth Democratic debate.
According to NBC News, only eight candidates have qualified to participate in the debate so far: Joe Biden, Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT), Mayor Pete Buttigieg (D), Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA), Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ), Andrew Yang, and Tom Steyer.
The debate, co-hosted by MSNBC and the Washington Post, will air from 9 PM EST to 11 on November 20.
I, for one, look forward to our all-female overlords.
Wait.
I mean I am looking forward to a debate with substantive questions without a great deal of dick posturing.
Still not a reason to start watching. Wake me when there are no more than three candidates on the stage.
Gender of the moderators is less important to me than their journalistic chops.
It will give Donnie something extra to whine and snark about. Go for it, Donnie, your numbers with women will be better than ever.
I cringe at the thought of any question Andrea Mitchell would ask
How is Yang in this debate—or Steyer for that matter—but not Klobuchar?
