MEGYN KELLY (HOST): Howie, the significance of Fox News getting a debate here?



HOWARD KURTZ: Well, it's true diversity. You have a black anchor, you have a Hispanic anchor, have a gay anchor, two female anchors and somebody from Fox News. And, you know, that's ultimate diversity.



KELLY: It's true.



KURTZ: Now, Chris Wallace has taken a little heat for saying on my show that he was not going to truth squad the candidates' answers. Remember how Candy Crowley got beat up for trying to correct Mitt Romney, what he was saying about President Obama and what he had said about Benghazi? So look, Chris is going to come in there, he is going to deal with the facts, and he is going to ask follow-up questions, --



KELLY: I gotta leave it at that.



KURTZ: -- But he doesn't want to personally debate the candidates.
