Fox Business works with the referees ahead of ABC News’ presidential debate

STUART VARNEY (MODERATOR): According to a study by the Media Research Group, tonight’s debate moderator, David Muir, has had only positive reviews of Harris. Ninety-three percent of his coverage of Trump has been negative. What do you expect from the moderator tonight?

TODD ​​PIRO (FOX & FRIENDS FIRST CO-HOST): If they want to keep their ABC audience, which, you have to remember, this show World news tonight is number one.

VARNEY: That’s it.

PIRRO: Obviously the audience likes that content. Very anti-Trump, very pro-Kamala. So if they’re in the middle, they run the risk of people saying, “Oh, I’m tuning in to NBC. They gave Trump too much credit.” So I’m curious to see if they’re going to do their job, which is 50-50 right in the middle, act like debate moderators, or if it’s going to be an infomercial for Kamala, Donald Trump’s evening gown, to have to compete against Kamala and the referees.
