Oh please. Even if we ignore that any question can have implications, they directly said "someone has to say it".

They were explicitly suggesting something by asking that question.

They were suggesting that this is a question that is going to be on people's minds, which is very different from suggesting that the answer is yes.

All I can say is that the phrasing looks quite biased to me and it would have been easy to not phrase it that way.

Subtext is hard to prove, but that doesn't make it not real.

It seems to have clearly been a case of "I remember 2 to 3, that was really bad. I imagine everyone else is wondering this - is this going to be another 2 to 3?"
