Discover the highs and lows of the CNN presidential debate between Biden and Trump. Fact-checking, deflections, and event bans revealed!

The much-anticipated debate between Joe Biden and Donald Trump on CNN stirred up a whirlwind of drama. While CNN managed to keep the debate civilized, misinformation ran rampant as fact-checkers struggled to keep up with Trump's debunked arguments. Trump's election denialism and conditional acceptance of 2024 election results added controversy to the event.

As the presidential debate unfolded, Biden and Trump clashed on key issues such as immigration, the economy, abortion, and even their own ages. While CNN aimed to maintain decorum, Trump's deflections left many questions unanswered. Despite the moderation efforts, the event raised concerns as misinformation slipped through unnoticed.

CNN's decision to ban White House pool reporters from the debate room caused a stir, with requests repeatedly rejected. The restrictions highlighted tensions between the network and media associations, adding another layer of intrigue to the already eventful evening.

In a surprising turn of events, CNN agreed to allow only one White House print pool reporter to briefly observe the studio during a commercial break. The move hinted at possible concessions but left lingering questions about media access in future debates. The conflicting dynamics behind the scenes added an extra layer of complexity to the already heated political showdown on air.
