What purpose do you think the "gotcha" questions really serve?

At the debate for instance...they had a very limited time to speak. And yet the moderators kept asking "gotcha" questions and trying to provoke fights amongst the candidates instead of asking questions that had to do with the real issues.

They literally provoked fights between Rand Paul and Chris Christie for example.
And then they did it again with Bush and Trump.

Or when Megyn Kelly goes into her long "question" (diatribe was more like it) about Trump's freakin' Twitter feed.

All of that was just for ratings and pure entertainment.

The media wasted precious time in the "debate" (and no, they aren't even "debates"...but more like glorified question and answer sessions).

We got very little questions that gave us substance and a lot of entertaining nonsense questions.
