Election Day and costly courtroom showdowns
Update: 2024-11-02
Description
Campaigns for both Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump are trying to get ahead of the curve on election legal battles. According to The Hill, there are already over 200 voting and election cases pending across the country. We’ll get into it. Then, we’ll explain how Trump’s recent battles with CBS and ABC could signal his intention to punish broadcasters if reelected. And, how do you feel about rolling back our clocks as daylight saving time ends? That and more in a round of Half Full/Half Empty.
Here’s everything we talked about today:
- “How Trump could weaponize the FCC against the media in a second term” from The Washington Post
- “Trump, Harris camps prepare to ‘go to the mattress’ in election legal battles” from The Hill
- “You Call That An Ad Blackout? Consultants Shrug Off Alphabet’s Post-Election Restrictions” from Campaigns & Elections
