Restoration of America Founder and President Doug Truax sent a letter to RNC Chairwoman Ronna\u2062 McDaniel, demanding that the party \u200d&#8221;immediately switch \u2062gears and retract your offer allowing NBC to moderate\u200b the upcoming debate.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Truax expressed disbelief \u2063that the \u200dRNC would grant a &#8220;conservative smearing, round-the-clock misinformation network like \u2063NBC&#8221;\u200b the opportunity\u2063 to host a Republican \u200cpresidential debate. \u200cHe argued that in a world where the government, Big Tech, and establishment\u2062 media collude to \u200dhide the truth and support Democrats, it is crucial to avoid giving platforms to networks like NBC.<\/p>\n<p>Last week, NBC\u200b announced \u2064that it would host the third \u2063Republican debate on November 8th in Miami-Dade\u2063 County. The\u200b moderators for the event include \u200dNBC&#8217;s Lester Holt and Kristen Welker, along with conservative radio host Hugh Hewitt.<\/p>\n<p>Truax emphasized NBC&#8217;s\u2062 role\u200b in spreading \u200dfalse stories,\u2064 such as the\u200b Russian collusion hoax,\u200d racial hoaxes, climate hoaxes,\u200c and misinformation about gender and abortion.\u2064 He accused the \u2062network of \u2063lying 24\/7 about nearly everything.<\/p>\n<p>Concerns have been \u200braised about Welker&#8217;s \u2063impartiality, given\u2064 her\u2062 activist track record \u2062at NBC. She \u200cpreviously\u200c moderated the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/under-trump-americans-have-seen-their-best-wage-growth-in-40-years\/\" title=\"Under Trump, Americans Have Seen Their Best Wage Growth In 40 Years\">final presidential debate<\/a> between Donald\u2062 Trump and Joe \u200cBiden in 2020. Truax pointed out \u200dthat Welker lied \u2062in\u200c an exclusive interview with Trump\u200d about the Democratic\u200d Party&#8217;s platform on\u200b abortion and their efforts to indict Trump.<\/p>\n<p>Truax also highlighted Holt&#8217;s \u200dhistory as a moderator, including his \u2062aggressive questioning of\u2063 Trump during\u200c the\u2063 2016 presidential debate \u200bwhile giving Clinton a pass on issues like the classified emails scandal \u200cand\u200b corruption \u2064in the\u200b Clinton Foundation.<\/p>\n<p>A\u200c recent Gallup \u2064poll revealed that \u200da record number of Americans have lost confidence in the\u2062 news media. Truax cited this \u2062diminishing trust \u200cin \u200bhis \u200bletter\u200c to the \u2063RNC and\u2062 urged them to support conservative media outlets\u200c that speak the truth.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<h3>About \u200bthe Author<\/h3>\n<p>Tristan Justice is \u200dthe western correspondent for \u200cThe Federalist and\u200c the author of Social\u2062 Justice Redux, a conservative newsletter on\u200d culture,\u2062 health, \u2064and wellness.

The decision was met\u2063 with backlash from \u2062conservative groups, who\u2064 believe that NBC is\u200b biased\u2064 against conservative viewpoints. \u2064The Restoration of America group, \u2063led by Doug Truax, is now calling on the RNC to drop NBC\u200b as the debate moderator.<\/p>\n<p>In a letter addressed to RNC Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel, Truax \u200bexpressed his disbelief over \u2064the\u200d RNC&#8217;s decision \u200dto allow NBC to moderate the \u2063upcoming debate. He described NBC as a &#8220;conservative smearing,\u2062 round-the-clock\u200d misinformation network&#8221; \u2063and argued that it is inappropriate for them to have a role\u200c in hosting a\u2063 Republican presidential debate.<\/p>\n<p>Truax&#8217;s argument\u2062 stems from his belief that the government, Big Tech, and establishment media work together to suppress conservative \u200cvoices and promote the\u2062 Democratic agenda. \u200dIn his view, it is imperative for conservatives to avoid giving\u200d platforms to networks like NBC, which he \u2064perceives as part of this collusion.<\/p>\n<p>The call to drop NBC as \u200dthe debate moderator raises questions\u200b about the role and responsibility of media outlets in facilitating political discourse. While it is crucial to ensure a fair and \u2064balanced debate, it\u200d is also important\u200c to consider the \u200ddiversity of media sources and\u2062 viewpoints represented.<\/p>\n<p>The \u200cRNC&#8217;s decision to have NBC as the debate\u200b moderator may have been influenced by various \u2062factors, including the network&#8217;s reputation, experience in hosting debates, and reach among the public. However, it is \u2063evident\u2064 that the \u200cdecision has \u2063stirred controversy within conservative circles.<\/p>\n<p>It is essential for the \u2064RNC to \u2064consider \u2064the concerns raised by Truax \u2062and other \u2064conservative groups. While\u2063 media outlets have a responsibility \u2063to \u200c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/trump-impeachment-cheerleaders-in-media-do-bidens-bidding-with-blackout-on-republicans-impeachment-inquiry\/\" title=\"Media cheerleaders for Trump's impeachment aid Biden by ignoring Republicans' inquiry.\">provide unbiased coverage<\/a> and facilitate fair debates, it \u2064is equally important for political parties to ensure that their voices are heard and their concerns are addressed.<\/p>\n<p>As\u2062 the upcoming presidential debates play a pivotal role in\u200c <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/mainstream-media-and-big-techs-seismic-shift-to-the-left\/\" title=\"Mainstream Media and Big Tech\u2019s Seismic Shift to the Left\">shaping public opinion<\/a> and \u2064influencing \u2063the outcome\u2062 of \u200cthe election,\u2062 it\u200b is essential\u200c to create an environment where open\u2063 and robust discussions can take place. This entails engaging with media outlets that represent a wide range of perspectives and ensuring that the moderators \u2064are\u200b impartial and fair.<\/p>\n<p>The RNC should carefully evaluate the \u200darguments put\u200b forward \u2064by Truax and decide \u2063whether NBC is\u200d an appropriate choice for\u2063 hosting the debate.
