My complaint:

After Donald Trump refused to follow the very reasonable safety requests for holding either a Debate or A Town Hall with Vice President Biden, you have sunk to BEYOND EVEN A sleazy low by deciding to cover Trump’s event. I am sick at heart. And disgusted.

I NEVER THOUGHT I WOULD WRITE SOMETHING LIKE THIS TO NBC–WHOSE HISTORY GOES SO FAR BACK TO THE EARLIEST DAYS OF RADIO. DAYS WHEN THERE WERE REGULATIONS TO PROTECT AND INFORM THE PUBLIC.

YOU– NBC– HAVE CHOSEN SENSATIONALISM OVER RESPONSIBILITY AND MORALITY. YOUR CONCERNS ARE CLEARLY NOT ABOUT INFORMING THE PUBLIC BUT ABOUT RATINGS AND COMMERCIALISM. YOU ARE BY DECIDING TO TELEVISE THIS COWARD– WHO WOULD NOT PLAY BY THE MOST BASIC RULES OF DECENCY AND NORMALCY–YOU ARE PROPAGANDIZING A DANGEROUS, PSYCHOPATHIC INDIVIDUAL WHO HAS PUT OUR ENTIRE COUNTRY AT RISK. YOU TOO MAY FIIND DISCOMFORT IN THE FUTURE IF YOUR WORLD IS CONTROLLED BY A DICTATOR..

Suggested solution:

THE Trump Event should not be covered at a normal 7- 11 PM time slot. If you must cover it--cover it at a different time and certainly NOT AT THE SAME TIME THAT Vice President Biden is planning IN GOOD FAIITH to hold a Civic Town Hall.
