Reality Check...who doesn't plant questions?

As Muriel Gallo-Chasanoff gets her 15 minutes of fame, the real question in this latest fabricated drama of what has become the presidential election is who doesn't plant or encourage supporters to ask questions at these events?

Even here locally it happens, take our recent school board race, one of the campaigns had a supporter present who asked a question so that the candidate would be able to flash this big huge notebook. Candidates urge their supporters to attend and on a local level at times it seems like the only ones who show up are supporters of the candidates which means the questions directed at the candidates you don't support are going to be harder and the ones directed at the candidate you do support are going to be ones that give your candidate a chance to shine...

The media does a huge disservice when it makes stories like this become stories without pointing out the obvious...It's human nature, just as it's human nature for a 19 year old to have had obviously no problem asking the question (which if she really had a problem with the process she wouldn't have asked the "planted question" in the first place) and now be out there stating "she just wants honesty". I want honesty too, which is why I can honestly say almost any single event you have with candidates where there will be audience questions taken? There will be people in that audience who want their candidate to be the "best" one...
