"A debate is an opportunity for a candidate to speak directly to potential supporters."

Explanation: Debates let candidates present positions, rebut opponents, and appeal to voters. The other statements are false — media cover more than just policy, debates aren’t mandatory for all candidates, and they occur at many levels (local, state, congressional, as well as presidential).
