Presidential debates canceled over moderator plan split
The bipartisan Commission on Presidential Debates canceled the first televised debate after President Bush resisted a single moderator format. Bush and Clinton had clashed over whether to be questioned by a panel or a lone moderator, with Bush preferring the traditional three-panelist setup.
