Texas Standard for September 26, 2016

With the presidential debate just hours away, what voters see might not be what the press sees. We’ll tell you why. And: After refusing to endorse the Republican nominee at the convention, Ted Cruz jumps aboard the Trump train. But does Cruz think Trump’s fit to be president? That’s another question. We’ll hear how he answered it. Also: We’ve heard stories about drowning in student debt. What does that mean in real life? A case study from North Texas. Plus: Rhett Miller of the Old 97’s offers a humble alternative to the Texas state song. Lawmakers, are you listening? All those stories and much more, on today’s Texas Standard.
