Time Magazine: World News Tonight host David Muir’s repeatedly fact-checked ing kept the proceedings honest. Davis and Muir's fact-checks tamped down Trump's most egregious inventions. His repetition of a racist and xenophobic conspiracy theory about Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio—“They’re eating the dogs, they’re eating the cats, they’re eating the pets of the people that live there”—got a quick correction. In apparent anticipation of this talking point, ABC News had contacted Springfield's city manager, who, Muir told viewers, had received “no credible reports of specific claims of pets being harmed, injured or abused by individuals within the immigrant community.” When Trump insisted he was being “sarcastic" in instances when he'd appeared to admit to having lost the 2020 election, Muir pushed back, noting that he'd reviewed tapes of some of those remarks and “didn't detect the sarcasm.” When Trump said, “Crime in this country is through the roof” due to an influx of migrants, Muir quickly corrected him, citing the FBI as his source.
