If 'channel' in your quote was a typo for 'challenge', it could mean that the author was just asking questions with obvious answers. Maybe not...?

Wow, what a conjecture! In fact, I did find some typos in the article. But in this case I still think the previous interpretation is contextually more suitable. This really tells us that language is fascinating. Thanks anyway.
