The media rely on ratings to drive revenues. It's all about their bottom line - and that includes corporate taxes being lowered, which will only happen if TSF is re-installed in the WH and his cronies in the Washington lower their tax rates. They are using that one lousy so-called debate to drive their narrative, and the stinkin' thing took place in damn June. June. There's never been a presidential debate scheduled so early before. Most folks don't even watch debates. For heaven's sake, people are taking themselves and their kids (if they have them) on vacation this time of year, sending them off to camp or vacation bible schools if they are so inclined. They are not paying attention to politics now and they've been skeptical of *polls* (also sponsored by corporate interest) for a pretty damned long time.
