False: Clinton Received Debate Questions A Week Prior

[ABX]

It hasn't been posted here but I've seen this on Facebook and FR several times.

Preparation H
A fake news story reported that Hillary Clinton was given her questions for the first presidential debate of 2016 a week in advance.

Claim: Hillary Clinton received her questions for the first presidential debate of 2016 a week in advance.
FALSE

Origin:On 26 September 2016, Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton and Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump squared off at Hofstra University for the first head-to-head presidential debate of the campaign. One of the talking points that emerged from the debate was the preparedness of each candidate, exemplified by this line from Clinton in response to a remark by Trump about her recent absence from the campaign trail:

Clinton Received Debate Questions Week Before Debate, According To Sources
by The Baltimore Gazette  |  published on September 27, 2016

The first presidential debate was held and Hillary Clinton was proclaimed the winner by the media. Indeed Clinton was able to turn in a strong debate performance, but did she do so fairly? Multiple reports and leaked information from inside the Clinton camp claim that the Clinton campaign was given the entire set of debate questions an entire week before the actual debate.

Earlier last week an NBC intern was seen hand delivering a package to Clinton’s campaign headquarters, according to sources. The package was not given to secretarial staff, as would normally happen, but the intern was instead ushered into the personal office of Clinton campaign manager Robert Mook. Members of the Clinton press corps from several media organizations were in attendance at the time, and a reporter from Fox News recognized the intern, but said he was initially confused because the NBC intern was dressed like a Fed Ex employee.

I find it sadly amusing that the Trumpbots were claiming this, not recognizing that the questions were blatantly obvious and anyone with a bit of prep could have fielded them.

More excuses for little Donnie, who's above little things like getting competent at something before shooting off his mouth.

Do they really think that Hillary's rebuttals and replies to Trump's outlandish rants and ridiculous word salads were rehearsed a week in advance?

Did Trump give her his reactions and rants a week prior to the debate?

Inquiring minds and all that.

Is Ted Cruz a Trumpbot?

That's all quite condescending above.

And Trumpbot Ted Cruz said Trump had his best debate so far.

Hey Hillary, I didn't know you owned a DeLorean...

That's because his prior ones were even worse.  Just because Cruz says he had his best debate so far doesn't mean he did better than the Beast.
