Candidates Prepare For Coverage Of Fourth Republican Debate

Judy Muller discusses media's role in covering GOP debates. 

During the last debate, Republican candidates criticized the media for asking questions that were too difficult to answer. Now, as the fourth debate airs on Fox Business Network, some candidates will face more tough questions from commentators. 

Ben Carson, the retired neurosurgeon who's surged to the top of the polls, is facing questions about key aspects of his biography, including his descriptions of being involved in violent encounters that date back to his childhood. 

Meanwhile, Jeb Bush, who was once viewed as the party's front-runner, is now stuck in single digits.

And then there's Donald Trump, the businessman who remains on top of most polls but is currently facing fierce competition from Carson. Trump will have to face questions about his recent view of women.

Carson, Bush, and Trump will be joined by Ted Cruz, Carly Fiorina, John Kasich, and Rand Paul for a two-hour showdown beginning at 6 p.m.
