Expectations for the 1st Debate

Washington Examiner
Donald Trump's and Hillary Clinton's campaign managers outlined contrasting ideas Sunday of how they want the media to cover Monday night's presidential debate.
Clinton campaign manager Robby Mook said he's worried Trump will be allowed to make false claims without anyone fact-checking him. He said it's not Clinton's job to "play traffic cop," but rather the media's task.
Republicans are praising Hillary Clinton as the most skilled and experienced politician ever to stand behind a podium. Democrats note Donald Trump, a former reality star, is especially savvy on television.
Could there possibly be anything more esoteric than yet another piece about “debate expectations” and the way the false consciousness of the media inevitably overrides the substance of two presidential candidates, making the whole thing an exercise in worse-than-futility? Probably not!
