if people are tuning in as adoring fans instead of people scared for their
lives.

Hey there. It's Jon Favreau, co-host of Pod Save America and former Obama
speechwriter.

Sorry to invade your inbox, but I have a pretty important ask.

Donald Trump is lying on television again -- but this time, we’re in the
middle of a global pandemic, where his lies could literally kill people.

Trump’s daily briefings are carried live by every network, which means
that millions of Americans are receiving misinformation about a public
health crisis that’s unfiltered and mostly unchallenged.

It has to stop. Cover the news. Cover the facts. But there is zero reason
to give the President a free campaign commercial every day where he's free
to spread lies that put people’s lives at risk.

TV networks to stop airing the daily Trump Show? Click here to sign the
petition. (After you sign, you’ll be given other opportunities to pressure
the networks.)

In typical Trump fashion, he’s using this crisis to boost his poll
numbers.

Yesterday, the President tweeted about the “ratings” his press conferences
are getting on the same day that we learned more than 2,000 Americans have
already died from the coronavirus.

Trump only cares about Trump. He thinks that higher television ratings
lead to higher approval ratings, and so far, he’s right.

Thousands of PCCC members like you have already [ [link removed] ]signed the petition
calling on networks to stop live coverage of Trump's lies. The pressure is
growing. MSNBC's Chris Hayes refused to play audio of Trump's briefing
calling it a "genuine threat to public health." NPR Seattle says it will
not air the briefings at all.

While this is a start, all the major networks need to get on board. Lives
are at stake. Donald Trump should not be allowed to spread his dangerous
lies when lives are at stake.

[ [link removed] ]Please join me and the PCCC: Demand that all TV networks stop live
airing of the Trump Show. Sign here.

Thanks for being in this fight.
