Scorecard wannabe
If I had the time, I’d make a scorecard for the CinC forum. Not for the candidates, though; for Lauer. Just a side-by-side on things like how he enforced his stated rule of “not attacking your opponent”; how many times he interrupted the candidate; how many times he cut the candidate off; how many times he argued with a candidate’s statement, etc. But I’d have to watch the whole thing again, and my stomach hasn’t yet calmed down from watching the first time. So, with only the mental picture of such a scorecard, were I tasked with grading Lauer he’d pull an F. A big one.
