- Politics
This week, the candidates met for the final presidential debate of the campaign in Nashville. We discuss our reactions, those in the media and how the gambling markets saw things. Although this was the last major national campaign event for the candidates to set out their stall to the American electorate, there was little to chew over in terms of substantive policy. We unpack the policy versus horserace dynamics of campaign coverage and try to explain why there seems to be so little interest in covering or consuming news about the future policy agenda of the candidates vying for the world’s most powerful political office.
