what kind of actors don't memorize their lines?

I'm as willing to believe CNN would plant questions in the audience as the next red blooded American, but as others have said the most likely explanation is just that they vetted her question and probably gave it an anti-cruz slant if anything. It's too easy these days to find out if someone is who they say they are on national TV, so a completely made up person for the actor to play would be unlikely.

I'll never understand why any GOP'er continues to go on CNN. It's like they set themselves up to get punked.

From management's clarification of board rules the other day, seems like this thread would be immediately anchored...

I mean, Cruz wrecked shop last night, didn't he?

But for some right wing blog to cry about fake news and then use this to claim there were "actors" and that CNN provided the questions is hilarious.
The mother frickers have lied before and do ne the exact same thing - right, real hilarity.
Oh, I forgot, leftists assume no one remembers what they do from one day to the next.

In response to the possibility of CNN faking the debate, we'll take a photo and make up what we think is significant about it and then put that on the internet as factual!
Cmon. They've done this sort of thing many times and it's not like they are going to confess. At least pretend to be objective by staying out of the thread.

If they echo it enough it has to be true.

1. The person thought of a question, told a spouse or buddy, got an email about it and printed the reply so they could read the question on air without screwing up, or
2. They're a paid actor!!!

Anyone questioning this can GTFO.
One of the recent CNN town hall "regular folks" was asking a question and she was reading it from a piece of paper. She struggled to read it fluidly and had to stop for multiple attempts to pronounce some words correctly. She barely got the question out. It was OBVIOUS that she she had been fed the question and just told to read it.

If CNN can't get better actors than her then
Posted on 2/8/17 at 4:11 pm to austintigerdad
Actually, #2 is pretty damn plausible. Town hall and debate theatrics are a dem tradition.
From the Donna Brazil incident to the fake lab coats at Obama's healthcare photo op, plants and staged question are the norm.

If you think CNN uses Google mail then you are a dimwit.

She uses GMAIL. CNN sent her the email with the question they wanted her to ask. We know that they sent it to her and that she printed it out for the debate because the email subject line read "YOUR Question".
If she had come up with the question and then sent it to CNN for approval, wouldn't the subject line read "MY Question"?

Should be no surprise given how they've been exposed for rigging presidential primary debates in the past.

Your source was USANewsBullet. A random tweet from a random person embedded inside the article is neither the source nor the author of the article. It is one random poli board poster's interpretation
