The recent blitz of analyses following the Harris-Trump debate brought to light some eyebrow-raising facts about ABC News’ moderators, Linsey Davis and David Muir. It appears that this “neutral” debate duo was engaged in more than just standard opposition research. While they diligently fact-checked Donald Trump’s comments—especially on hot-button issues like crime and abortion, which they got hilariously wrong—they somehow forgot to hold Vice President Kamala Harris to the same scrutiny. Surprise, surprise!
However, the plot thickens. An investigation into Davis’s background revealed a little “sisterly” connection with Kamala Harris. Yes, it turns out that Davis and Harris are sorority sisters, both having pledged allegiance to Alpha Kappa Alpha. Now, it’s understandable that some might argue this is a non-issue since they’ve never actually met. But for those with even a smattering of knowledge about sorority culture, the notion that they are merely distant acquaintances is as comforting as a lukewarm cup of decaf.
CONFIRMED—@ABC Linsey Davis, who moderated last night’s Presidential Debate, had a MAJOR conflict of interest:

While the media may try to downplay this connection, conservatives are barking at the moon about the integrity of the debate. The idea that a moderator could be so cozily connected to a candidate raises significant questions. Critics have pointed out that if a Trump-supporting moderator had a similar linkage, the mainstream media would be laying waste to his objectivity in record time. Double standards may not be a surprise anymore, but this one is particularly egregious.
Moreover, the vast network of sororities and fraternities emphasizes a unique bond that goes beyond just some light social chit-chat. With over a thousand chapters of Alpha Kappa Alpha across the United States, that’s quite a network. This is not an isolated incident of two women from different eras and backgrounds. They may have never crossed paths, but the concept of sorority sisters extends much deeper and connects them in ways that the casual observer might overlook.
To add fuel to the fire, there’s a serious concern surrounding the cozy relationships between the Left and the legacy media. It’s not just Davis’s associations that should raise eyebrows; the connection between Harris and ABC News executive Dana Walden is also a troubling circle of influence that suggests a quasi-state media complex is alive and well. When the lines start to blur between the media and political figures, it’s the voters who pay the price through skewed narratives and one-sided debates.
