    News hosts should ask critical questions. It’s not their job to try and “win” a debate. She could have said “thank you for your insight” and be done.

      Ideally, they should ask critical questions. But this host’s job (that is, the labor they are being paid to perform) isn’t to serve society as a news host. It’s to disseminate corporate propaganda on behalf of the network major shareholders. It was their job to try and “win” that argument (it’s not even a debate!) and they sure didn’t.
