Meanwhile, At 'Hotline'…
Our colleagues at Hotline On Call are also live-blogging the CNN/YouTube debate. Here are a couple of posts…
Just Sayin'
So far On Call has counted 26 videos aired tonight. Of those videos so far, six were recorded by women and at least 17 were recorded by men. And a couple videos were either mixed or from non-gender entities. You know, like an animated snowman asking about global warming.
Don't Look At Us, We Didn't Write The Questions
A YouTube user asks both Clinton and Obama to confront their critics who say gender and race still play a roll in politics. As one reporter put it to me today at lunch, is CNN using the YouTube users to ask the questions they don't want to take responsibility for asking? Probably not, because CNN gets lots of second-wave press for asking controversial questions. But it's worth asking because this might be one of the first times both Clinton and Obama confronted the issue in the same room.
