It’s Jim Lehrer’s turn to discuss the debate - The Washington Post
Keywords:
Jim Lehrer of PBS deserves a lot of credit for the remarkable way in which he handled the new format of 15 minute segments designed to draw out the distinctions between the candidates in the first 2012 U.S. presidential television debate.
How Jim Lehrer of PBS handled the first presidential debate of 2012 and the new format
10/06/2012
The new format was to divide the debate time into 15 minute segments instead of a question and giving the candidates 2 mintues to respond. The idea was to draw out the distinctions between the candidates and get them to talk to each other. Lehrer decided to try out the new format and he says it is a good format with a little tweaking. It does help to have a skilled moderator and candidates who carry out constructive as happened in this debate in October 2012. Lehrer deserves a lot of credit for having done this so well and caps a long and remarkable career on PBS guiding the American people through the issues facing the country for three decades.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
