Over on The Campaign Spot, Jim Geraghty asks, “How Would Last Night Have Gone if YouTube Partnered With Fox News?”

We don’t know, of course. But we do know that in a side-by-side comparison I did earlier this year, they blew MSNBC away. These were standard-format debates, with the exception in each case that the moderators asked a few viewer questions that had been submitted online. But Fox moderators even did a better job of screening those questions for seriousness. (Remember MSNBC’s “What do you dislike most about America?”) In fact, most of Fox’s viewer-submitted questions were more serious than those asked by Chris Matthews, who wasted everyone’s time with questions like, “Is Karl Rove your friend?”
