An official for the Commission on Presidential Debates claimed on Friday that a debate moderator was hacked after the moderator posted a tweet asking a known President Donald Trump enemy for advice.

Steve Scully, a C-SPAN correspondent, was tapped for the second Trump-Joe Biden debate by the commission, which describes itself as nonpartisan and handles details of presidential debates.
