Lester Holt is far better than the dreadful Matt Lauer who hosted the equally dreadful "Commander In Chief Forum". Unlike Lauer, Holt is actually a journalist and not a dropout from a "Media Arts" program.

The trouble is that they both work for the same network, NBC, which in turn is owned by Comcast, a privately held (not publicly traded) media conglomerate owned and run by a right wing family. If it turns out that the treatment that Hillary received at the hands of Lauer was ordered from on high, then it's likely that Holt has been given a similar mission for next week's debate.
