Dish Network's chief executive Charlie Ergen is stepping down so that he can "devote more attention to the company's emerging wireless business," per the company. He's still the firm's chairman. The company's new chief executive, Erik Carlson, will report to him.
Why it matters: Dish has rights to a large swath of wireless airwaves but has to use them by 2021.

President Trump's final debate performance exceeded Americans' expectations, but it wasn't enough to shift the dynamics that left him trailing Joe Biden across most measures, according to a new Axios-SurveyMonkey poll.
What they're saying: "Liar" was the word used most by debate watchers to describe Trump's performance, followed by "lies," "strong," "presidential" and "childish." "Presidential" was the word used most to describe Biden's performance, followed by "liar," "weak," "expected" and "honest."
The mainstream media turned away. But online, President Trump's charges about Hunter Biden were by far the dominant storyline about the final presidential debate, according to exclusive NewsWhip data provided to Axios.
