PBS Frontline Premieres 'The Choice 2024' Documentary

PBS Frontline has launched its documentary 'The Choice 2024: Harris vs. Trump,' which examines the lives and views of both presidential candidates through extensive interviews with friends, advisors, and critics. Directed by Michael Kirk, this two-hour special aims to inform undecided voters about the candidates' backgrounds and values, a crucial task given the current political climate marked by misinformation. The documentary highlights Kamala Harris's journey as a historically significant candidate and contrasts it with Donald Trump's ongoing pursuit of vindication after his previous presidency. The filmmakers faced unique challenges in rapidly producing content, especially following Joe Biden's exit from the race. The program emphasizes the candidates' personalities and life stories over their policy positions, aiming to provide a nuanced look at their character. It is available for viewing on PBS and other streaming platforms.
