Fridays at 9 pm. Anchored by public radio’s Brian Lehrer, POTUS 2016 is designed to satisfy public television viewers’ hunger for serious, in-depth election coverage. POTUS 2016 is unique for being a regularly scheduled program solely devoted to the campaign season.

A regular segment, “Evidence-Based Politics,” will look deeply into one timely campaign issue with a researcher who has published a rigorous study on the subject, countering half-truths and exaggerations with hard information.

The program has a rotating group of regulars, including Steve Forbes, editor-in-chief of Forbes magazine; Gail Collins, New York Times columnist; Ta-Nehisi Coates, senior editor for The Atlantic; Law Professor Zephyr Teachout; and campaign finance expert and former gubanatorial candidate Mark Hugo Lopez of the Pew Research Center.
