Frontline

Tue. Oct. 27 at 9 p.m. on WKAR-HD 23.1 & STREAMING | Investigating the lives and characters of Joe Biden and Donald Trump as they compete to be president.

In the midst of a historic pandemic, economic hardship, and a reckoning with racism, this November Americans will decide who will lead the nation for the next four years: President Donald Trump or former Vice President Joe Biden. 

And before the votes are cast, as it has for every election since 1988, Frontline will present The Choice — its critically acclaimed election year special offering interwoven investigative biographies of both major-party candidates. In this 2-hour special, veteran Frontlines filmmaker Michael Kirk and his team examine the defining moments that shaped Trump and Biden’s lives, their approaches to power, and their visions for America’s future at this pivotal juncture.
