昨天，2020年美国总统大选首场辩论在俄亥俄州克利夫兰的凯斯西储大学已经结束。
首场总统辩论由6个15分钟的主题辩论组成，包括“特朗普和拜登的过往经历”“新冠病毒大流行”“最高法院”“种族歧视”“经济”“选举的公正性”。而这一场辩论被美国媒体点评为“史上最混乱辩论”。
克里斯·华莱士将主持首场辩论。而辩论题目由华莱士拟定。克里斯·华莱士是福克斯的当红主持人，而他父亲迈克·华莱士在中国更加出名。迈克·华莱士先后专访过8位美国总统，以及拉宾、阿拉法特、邓小平等许多国家领导人。
克里斯·华莱士虽然不如他父亲有名，但有的读者可能记得，在今年7月份的时候，他也上过中国社交媒体热搜。当时他代表福克斯新闻采访特朗普，这是特朗普2018年以来第一次接受福克斯新闻的专访。
克里斯·华莱士的父亲是美国新闻界传奇人物迈克·华莱士。
克里斯·华莱士本人是《福克斯星期天新闻》主播，凭此节目三次获得艾美奖。他在2003年加入福克斯新闻台，在这之前在美国广播公司新闻台工作14年。华莱士以犀利的采访方式著称，对民主党和共和党一视同仁。
“华莱士的追问为他赢得了头条关注”，这是美联社的评论标题。“主持人华莱士是这场辩论的英雄”，英国《每日邮报》这样评论。与继续“互黑”的希拉里和特朗普相比，主持人华莱士收获了舆论好评。
西方主流媒体和网友都认为，华莱士将同样尖锐的问题抛给两位候选人，并且限制了他们互相揭短，时刻注意将话题引到政策阐述和辩论上去。

Chris Wallace, anchor for Fox News Sunday, moderated the much-anticipated first presidential debate between President Donald Trump and Joe Biden on September 29th, 2020.
The appointment put Wallace in the spotlight in a big way, but he's certainly no stranger to taking the stage during national events.
"You may know me from your parents' TV when you go home to do laundry." Wallace moderated the third presidential debate in 2016 between Trump and Hillary Clinton.
And following Wallace's performance, The Washington Post noted, "No one could watch the final debate and deny that Chris Wallace is among the best in the business." Wallace also conducted an interview in 2018 with Russian president Vladimir Putin and shortly after, Wallace covered Brett Kavanaugh's Supreme Court case, in which he was accused of assault by Dr.Christine Blasey Ford, and others.
But while Wallace works for Fox News, the anchor's political affiliations might come as a surprise.
Wallace grew up in a Jewish family in Chicago, and his father, Mike Wallace, was a prominent journalist and innovative news anchor for 60 Minutes.
"There is a new billionaire in town, Trump's the name.
[…] I don't think it's journalism, I think it's show business." Mike Wallace married Norma Kaphan in 1940 and they had two sons.
Chris's brother Peter died in 1962.
"Can you imagine having Mike Wallace as a father?" "You go out on a date, and you come home, and Mike Wallace is sitting there waiting to ask you questions." When his parents split after 8 years of marriage, Wallace's mother married Bill Leonard, then-president of CBS News, according to HuffPost.
It was Leonard who got Wallace interested in reporting.
Wallace remembered of his childhood, "If the car hit a milestone, say 20,000 miles, we would do a special report.
[Bill] would be the anchor, and I would be on the assembly line in Detroit with the guy who had made the car.
And then I'd be the White House correspondent talking about what this meant for the balance-of-trade deficit because this was a terrific General Motors car." Wallace attended Harvard University and was actively involved in the 1969 protest, where students occupied University Hall in response to the Vietnam War and Harvard's ROTC program.
Wallace recalled to Harvard Magazine how he was hauled off to jail and used his one phone call to give a report to a local radio station.
Once Wallace completed his education, he began working at NBC in New York City, as the network's White House correspondent.
In 1989, he joined ABC News.
And 14 years later, he jumped networks and became the Fox News Sunday host — a position which Wallace admitted he was wary about, especially since he's a registered Democrat.
He told the Chicago Tribune, "I had the same conception a lot of people did about Fox News, that they have a right-wing agenda.
I'm a straight-news man — I plead guilty." Wallace admitted he votes for the candidate rather than the party, and as a journalist, he remains impartial.
He explained, "Do I have political opinions? Absolutely.
But I vote for the person, and I've voted for Republicans and Democrats and independents over the course of my life.
I feel very strongly that you try not to let that affect the way you report the news." Wallace is known for being tough but fair in his interviews, and he's even made history for his network on numerous occasions.
In 2009, he became the first Fox host to interview President Barack Obama.
Then in 2016, he moderated the presidential debate, he became the first-ever Fox network host to do so.
In 2018, Wallace earned a News and Documentary Emmy Award for Outstanding Live Interview after meeting with Vladimir Putin, which, Forbes reported, was, quote, "the first Emmy nomination in Fox News' history." But despite his professional success, sometimes events hit much closer to home.
In September 2018, as Wallace covered Brett Kavanaugh's Supreme Court hearing, Wallace's own daughters shared with him instances that had happened to them in high school, after they heard Dr.Blasey Ford's testimony.
At the time, Wallace said on Fox News, "There are teenage girls who don't tell stories to a lot of people, and then it comes up, and I don't think we can disregard that.
I don't think we can disregard Christine Blasey Ford and the seriousness of this.
I think that would be a big mistake." "This was extremely emotional, extremely raw, and extremely credible." When it comes to distilling the real news, Wallace is clearly the man for the job.
克里斯托弗·华莱士（Christopher Wallace，生于1947年10月12日）是美国电视主播和新闻记者，是《福克斯新闻》节目《福克斯新闻周日》的新闻主播。华莱士以其艰苦而广泛的采访而闻名，经常将他与父亲，即著名的60分钟记者麦克·华莱士（Mike Wallace）相提并论。
十几岁的华莱士在1964年共和党全国代表大会期间成为沃尔特•克朗基特的助手。哈佛大学毕业后，他担任《波士顿环球报》的国家记者他的老板称他为“进取和野心勃勃的记者”。在看到电视在1972年共和党全国代表大会上对新闻产生的影响后，他专注于广播新闻的工作，首先是在NBC（1975-1988年）期间，他担任白宫通讯员以及NBC Nightly News和NBC的主播。媒体见面会主持人。
然后，他在美国广播公司（ABC）工作，担任黄金时段星期四和夜线（1989-2003）的主持人。华莱士是唯一一个主持和主持过多个美国主要政治周日上午脱口秀节目的人，他是在NBC期间做的。自2003年以来，华莱士主持了《福克斯新闻周日》，在他的访谈中赢得了赞誉和好评，接受了巴拉克·奥巴马，总统弗拉基米尔·普京和唐纳德·特朗普等政客的采访。
根据2018年的一项民意调查，他被评为美国最受信任的电视新闻主播之一。华莱士以总统辩论主持人的技巧而闻名。当他被选为主持唐纳德·特朗普与前国务卿希拉里·克林顿之间的2016年美国总统最后辩论时，他创造了历史，这是福克斯新闻记者的第一场辩论。
他再次被选为温和派，这次是特朗普总统与前副总统乔·拜登之间的第一次2020年美国总统辩论。华莱士曾荣获皮博迪奖，三项艾美奖，杜邦-哥伦比亚银接力棒奖和保罗·怀特终身成就奖。
”2016年美国大选候选人"太烂"
总统第三轮辩论主持人华莱士"圈粉"
引导双方“说正事”
华莱士没有在一些候选人的个人问题上过多纠缠，而是用坚决的态度引导双方“说正事”。他紧扣既定的辩论话题，细致地询问了包括经济、军事、移民、国债等与美国现实情况息息相关的问题。
在进入每个议题时，华莱士首先会提出一个较宽泛的问题，为接下来的辩论奠定基调。他在整场辩论中都保持了稳定和平衡的提问方式，对希拉里和特朗普“一碗水端平”。说到性骚扰问题，他问了特朗普，也谈到了克林顿。说经济政策的时候，他质疑特朗普的减税和经济增长目标，也对希拉里的方案表示怀疑。说到移民，他详细追问特朗普的“修城墙”方案，同时也提到希拉里对华尔街的演讲中阐述的移民政策。
“hold住”辩论者和观众
由于希拉里和特朗普的攻击性太强，前两场辩论最后多少显得失控，局面十分难看。而华莱士这次可谓“hold住”全场。当特朗普不断插话、打断对手发言时，华莱士好几次提醒：“特朗普先生，请注意”，未获理睬。华莱士立刻讽刺道“我不是一个盆栽植物”，意指特朗普目中无人。华莱士对希拉里也毫不客气。他谈到了希拉里的“邮件门”和克林顿的性骚扰事件，敦促她作出回应。
华莱士还提醒观众克制笑声和惊讶的情绪，因为观众并非辩论的参与者、而“仅仅是客人”。当特朗普说“没有人比我更尊重女性”时，很多观众不禁笑出声来。华莱士立刻要求观众噤声。
辩论结束后，希拉里和特朗普都走到主持台边，与华莱士热情握手。这似乎是唯一一场主持人未受批评的辩论。第一场辩论的主持人是美国广播公司的霍尔特，观众认为他没能控制住两名候选人，特朗普则指责他偏向希拉里。第二场辩论的主持人是库珀和拉达兹，他们的表现赢得希拉里支持者的喝彩，但特朗普支持者则认为他们提问片面。
2020年美国总统大选首场辩论
各路网友呼吁：请给主持人闭麦的权利…
2020年的这一场辩论被美国媒体点评为“史上最混乱辩论”。
到底有多混乱，给大家截两个开场半小时的小片段，仿佛错入菜市场，围观三个男人吵架。
第一个：小华莱士问了一个特朗普关于ObamaCare的问题，然后特朗普就跟他辩起来了。
第二个：还是关于奥巴马《平价医疗法案》，拜登阐述观点时，特朗普同一时间疯狂输出，气的拜登来了一句“Would you shut up, man! ”
CNN记者Jake Tapper的评价“这场辩论犹如耻辱”
BBC主播Katty Kay吐槽“我只能听到三个老白男在台上叫喊。”
在辩论结束，根据CBS发布的民调：48%支持拜登 41%支持特朗普。根据CNN发布的民意调查，60%认为拜登表现更好，28%认为特朗普表现更佳。
CNN的民调结果与2016年特朗普和希拉里的首场辩论民调结果类似，当时认为希拉里表现好的为62%，认为特朗普表现好为27%。
对于首场辩论，大家好像一致认为是一场“shit show”，美国人在社交媒体上一片哀嚎，来看看他们的吐槽。
幼儿园老师应该涨薪
孩子家长不易当…
主持人体会到老师的不易
下一场应该给主持人掐麦的权力
Chris Wallace需要“一键静音”
Chris Wallace主持辩论前后对比
巧了，我也是抱着病态的好奇心
脑壳痛
惊喜不？川普一打二，跟主持人也能掐
啊！比家庭主妇吵架还呱噪
shit show
其实吧，提前结束辩论不可耻
没想到，Shut Up先出圈
难以置信，这样的剧情还会有两场
