Donald Trump’s announcement of a third bid for the White House renewed a conversation in newsrooms about the best way to cover his candidacy.

On the one hand, the campaign of a former president who commands the loyalty of a sizable portion of the American electorate is clearly newsworthy. On the other hand, even if his lies are called out, the decision to feature conspiracy theories and demagoguery prominently in news coverage can cause real damage, as media organizations learned from Trump’s previous campaigns as well as his presidency.

We want to hear your views on striking the right balance. Tell us how you think the news media should and shouldn’t be covering the former president’s campaign.

Trump is still not interested in being president, except for the protection it gives him from being prosecuted. His lawyers must have told him declaring himself a candidate confers some of those protections. There is no precedence for that. Trump is getting creamed in court. He has no defense for his continued crimes. It appears his tax case in NY will be the first to wrap up He is like these people. https://abcnews.go.com/Entertainmen...eys-sentenced-bank-fraud-tax-evasion-93756045
