Debate preview
Harris and Trump are set to debate for the first time on Tuesday night. Business Insider says the showdown could shift the dynamic of the 2024 presidential race -- especially in swing states.
US News thinks Trump has a lot to lose: He's “cooked” if Harris can manage to calmly shut down his sexist and racist attacks.
On the other hand, Financial Times says Harris is the one with a lot to lose: She must redefine her image to reignite her campaign's momentum.
DailyWire took it further: Harris needs this debate to go well -- people don't really know her or her policies. Trump has every reason to be confident.
On the other hand, A Hill Op says debates rarely sway elections: Viewers usually stick with pre-decided candidates anyway.
Curious on how to tune in on Tuesday night? Washington Examiner has the details -- check out their guide on how to watch the debate on ABC here.
Brady’s announcing debut
Tom Brady made his debut as an NFL announcer. USA Today said it was a nervous start, but there's potential for improvement.
The Athletic is also hopeful, Brady showed improvement throughout the game. He just needs time to find his rhythm.
But Eleven Warriors thinks he totally sucked -- his voice is annoying and he offered no valuable insights. Hell, Tony Romo was better than him!
This Redditor says it's not entirely his fault, the game he called was super boring. He does need to liven things up though -- too bland!
Yahoo Sports thinks the bar was too high -- of course his first game was clunky, he'll get better over time. Everybody relax!
