Face the Nation had sometimes good times, sometimes bad times, sometimes good work-up of topics, sometimes poor showmanship, sometimes good and sympathetic moderators, sometimes weak ones who can't do their craft. A symbol of how difficult it is in a capitalist society to do right and good work with capitalist news programs.

The first sign of bias is the refusal to listen. This program is long in interruptions and short on listening.
No need to watch unless you like bickering without any positive results.
Hey...reasonable people disagree, especially in politics and religion. But asking a question for the sake of pretense and launching your point of view vaguely disguised as the next question when the guest is one sentence into their answer is a reason to ignore this show.
Truth scares a lot of people right now as they are duped by "alternative facts" daily. Margaret Brennan doesn't let lies be presented as fact. BRAVO!

Margaret is great. This isn't the lies and buddy system junk I'm used to on Fox News.

Have been watching this show for several weeks now. Today is the last time. She is CLEARLY politically biased. Very unprofessional and insanely inappropriate. I'm a seeker of truth and always wanted to know both sides of the argument so that I can make an informed decision. I'm adding her, and her biased tactics to my DO NOT WATCH list along with anything CNN-related

This moderator (Margaret Brennan) interrupts, pushes and accuses her interviewees, leaves a negative taste in my mouth. Her arrogant attitude irritates and I have to focus on good people to tolerate this show or often I turn it off.
I don't care for 98% of network news. Decided to take a look at Brennans Face The Nation and I so far am impressed. She asks direct and relevant questions. She presses, in a professional manner, the guests, to get an answer that is not full of propaganda or opinion. This results in full exposure for the public to be able to make up their own minds on the guest and topic. Brennan is a gem and the network is lucky to have her. She had a guest on recently who was asserting a complete embellishment of the facts while avoiding the direct question, and Brennan masterfully brought the conversation back to the court which resulted in the guest addressing the question and providing an answer. I will increase rating to a 10 if Brennan is consistent in her non biased approach, which is lacking in the majority of network news.
I tried watching the interview with Rep Jeffries.
When Brennan wasn't interrupting Jeffries, she was responding with hmm mm and "right" which told me she wasn't listening just waiting to peddle the next both sidesism talking point or sound bite. She was clearly more focused on badgering and achieving her own agenda, treating this very critical issue as some sort of contentious game between both sides. Of course with her probably 6 figures salary, Face the Nation is her personal showcase, and she demonstrates her indifference. There is no evidence of her understanding that this debt ceiling fight is manufactured by the Maga GOP to protect the 1% et al.

Just happened across her on face the nation and was astounded that there still exist, brilliance and again in a female form that is enjoyable to watch and as about as independent as you can be without falling to the right. And only 40 wow this lady should run for president one day herself! She even allows her salary less than 5000 monthly to be displayed for someone that I believe once the word gets out and this debate helped is showing In charge confident and rightfully so not like JD's confidence. She helps my favorite local network channel CBS stay at the top of network and Sunday news TV along with Nora O'Donnell but Margaret just has that thing again besides not being too hard on the eyes where she can get a point across totally nonpartisan and steer the conversation toward fax if need be.
Watching her interview with Nikki Haley her bias on the idiot Kamala is sickening it's like watching the view on a Sunday morning. Get off your high horse lady and look at the facts Go take your multimillion dollar salary and shove it. You are a joke. I am so sick of mainstream media picking aside why doesn't the mainstream media look at pure facts look at our border look at our economy look at our gas prices look at our groceries. Who could possibly think we are in a better situation under a Democrat. Everything I have built in my businesses have gone to hell since Democrats took over 4 years ago but her blatant rude interviewing skills are useless.
