John,

With the polls tightening between Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris, tonight’s debate is a pivotal moment in the 2024 election.

Whatever happens on stage tonight, one thing is certain: the media’s reaction will shape the narrative and have a lasting impact on this election and the future of our country.

But here’s the big question: Will the legacy media finally call out Donald Trump’s unfitness for office, or will they once again bend over backward to normalize him and let it slide?

We’ll dive into more details below, but if you’re ready to help us hold the media accountable for enabling Trump’s dangerous candidacy, please chip in $25 today to support our mission. [[link removed]]

John, you likely remember the June debate between President Biden and Trump. You also probably recall the relentless media coverage of Biden’s perceived missteps that continued until the day he formally withdrew and endorsed Kamala Harris.

While Biden was hammered by the press, Trump’s lies and outlandish claims were glossed over, with some pundits even lauding his “disciplined” performance. It was a gross mischaracterization that ignored Trump’s deceitful downplaying of the January 6th insurrection and the dozens of lies he told on the debate stage.

Now, with Biden out and Harris leading the Democratic ticket, we can hope that tonight’s coverage will be different. But will it?

Trump’s authoritarian rhetoric has only escalated. Over the weekend, he threatened to prosecute his political opponents if re-elected and promised a “bloody” mass deportation of migrants. The crisis around his anti-democratic candidacy is only deepening, and the media has a duty to confront it head-on.

Regardless of how the media covers the debate tonight, COURIER will be there to hold them accountable. We’re committed to providing fact-based, fearless reporting in the communities that need it most. But we can’t do it without you.
