Tonight's the night! Donald Trump versus Hillary Clinton, live and unscripted. (Well, Clinton will be scripted.) To me, the important question is whether Hillary stays upright.

To the editor:
Patterson has it right, although he doesn’t go far enough. It’s not just that Clinton has received unduly negative coverage, it’s that the media has largely given Trump a pass on all kinds of egregious behavior.
The most frustrating thing about this campaign is that Trump is widely perceived as being the trustworthy, honest candidate, when in reality, there is no reason to believe a word that comes out of his mouth.
I believe that Clinton, by contrast, rarely lies and mostly tells the truth, the opposite of what voters perceive.
We’ve heard about Clinton’s emails ad nauseam, but Trump’s many, more serious scandals barely get a passing notice.
It’s not too late. The media has gotten us into this mess, and it’s up to the media to get us out.
