Tonight's debate moderater Raddatz has deep ties to Obama

Don't get too hopeful for anything resembling fairness from Martha Radditz in tonight's debate. Got News reports,
ABC News reporter and tonight’s debate moderator Martha Raddatz caught flak in 2012 for her bias as a vice presidential debate moderator and for her failure to disclose her deep personal ties to Barack Obama.

...The Media Research Center’s report on the debate said that Raddatz “clearly favored Team Obama” and “sounded like an Obama surrogate.”

On domestic issues, Raddatz “practically joined Joe Biden in pounding on Paul Ryan.”

Martha Raddatz was also criticized in 2012 by Mika Brzezinski of Morning Joe for not being transparent enough about her deep personal ties to Barack Obama during her performance as a debator moderator.

Barack Obama was a guest at Martha Raddatz’ 1991 wedding.

As Breitart reported:

Raddatz married Obama’s Harvard Law School classmate and Harvard Law Review cohort Julius Genachowski in 1991, years before Obama appointed Genachowski to head the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). Obama went to the wedding, years before he became a national politician.
