The next presidential debate is a town hall format scheduled for Oct. 15 in Miami. That was the most-watched presidential debate ever. He called on the debate commission to act.

President Donald Trump points out into the audience after speaking during the first day of the 2020 Republican National Convention in Charlotte, N.C., Monday, Aug. 24, 2020. President Donald Trump complained about spotty coverage of the roll call vote that renominated him as the Republican candidate for president, and some television networks abandoned Trump's informal, 54-minute acceptance speech for aggressive fact-checking. Democrats turned the traditional roll call vote into a well-received television production, with delegates stationed in their home state or territory to proclaim allegiance to Joe Biden. Republicans had 336 delegates a fraction of the normal amount support Trump at the Charlotte Convention Center in North Carolina. Trump specifically complained about CNN and MSNBC, although he also grumbled that Fox News Channel had announcers talking over the vote.

REUTERS/Yuri GripasOn Monday, Trump said NBC News Meet the Press host Chuck Todd should be fired, suggesting the program misleadingly aired only part of U.S. Attorney General William Barrs answer to a question. Trump tweeted at FCC Chairman Ajit Pai and said Todd knew exactly what he was doing. Pai said in an April 7 letter that absent very narrow circumstances, the government cannot and should not investigate stations or revoke licenses based on programming the station airs.Pai also urged Democrats to reject calls to investigate broadcasts for airing Trump press conferences on coronavirus. In October 2017, Trump suggested the FCC could challenge the license of NBC after stories Trump declared were not true, but Pai said it had no authority to do so. Courts have held that a station exercising its First Amendment rights is not adequate grounds to challenge a license.
