New York Times (September 16)
“The issue that still dominates the presidential contest is the economy, which is driving a lot of the discourse.” It appears that “Kamala Harris may be gaining ground on the economy” while other signs suggest a change in outlook. The most recent University of Michigan sentiment survey shows “U.S. consumers increasingly feel better about prices and other economic matters.”

“China’s assertive campaign to police discourse about its policies, even outside of its borders, and the acquiescence of American companies eager to make money in China, pose a dangerous and growing threat to one of this nation’s core values: the freedom of expression.” U.S. companies shouldn’t cave. They “have an obligation to defend the freedom of expression, even at the risk of angering China.”
