Not a surprise. Chris Wallace is at the top of TV journalists bar none.
Rieder: Why Fox's Chris Wallace was a debate night winner
Rem Rieder , USA TODAY 4:54 p.m. EDT October 20, 2016
So Debate No. 3 had one clear-cut winner: Fox News' Chris Wallace.
This has been a challenging year indeed for presidential debate moderators, in a campaign filled with all manner of bizarre side issues and a boisterous, sometimes ungovernable debate presence named Donald J. Trump. Previous debates have been chaotic, often embarrassing affairs that did little to contribute to the nation's civil dialogue.
On Wednesday night, Wallace put on a clinic on how to run a debate, He focused heavily on questions of substance. He largely stayed away from the distractions. And he moved quickly and forcibly to keep the debate on track, cutting off interruptions and off-subject interjections. Not perfectly, but pretty darn well.
