Trump launched 'Trump TV' while everyone was watching the debate
There has been abundant speculation about Donald Trump possibly starting his own media organization or television channel if he loses the presidential election, but it looks like he may have gotten a head start Wednesday during the final presidential debate.
Trump aired live coverage of the debate with the message "if you’re tired of biased, mainstream media reporting (otherwise known as Crooked Hillary’s super PAC), tune into my Facebook Live broadcast." Pundits on his "channel" included retired Lieutenant General Michael Flynn and former Arizona Governor Jan Brewer, with an Ivanka Trump message and anti-Clinton ads running as "commercials." Trump also added a #TrumpTV section to his YouTube page, in case there was ever any question about what such a venture might be called.
