Bob Schieffer of CBS's "Face the Nation," the moderator of the last U.S. presidential debate is a journalist of the stature of Walter Cronkite. With years of experience, and covering issues under many presidents, he says moderators are like umpires. He has declined interviews and kept as low a profile as possible. Cindy Crowley of CNN, the moderator of the second debate, came under criticism after her comment about whether Obama had called the attack in Benghazi, Libya, a terrorist attack.

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.
