Mark Lukasiewicz

Mark Lukasiewicz, dean of the Lawrence Herbert School of Communication, was interviewed by KNX news radio in Los Angeles about quibbling between the camps of Kamala Harris and Donald Trump in the weeks leading up to their September 10 debate on ABC-TV. The Harris campaign wants both candidates’ microphones to be live throughout the full broadcast. The Trump campaign wants the debate to be conducted by the same rules agreed to when Joe Biden was the Democratic candidate. That would mean muted microphones.



Lukasiewicz is a veteran producer, journalist, and media executive who has spent his professional career telling important stories to worldwide audiences and helping media organizations deal with transformational change.
