On Wednesday, Sept. 7, NBC News and MSNBC \u2014 along with\u00a0the Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America \u2014 will host the the Commander-in-Chief Forum<\/a> in\u00a0New York City.<\/p>\n

It will be a one-hour forum where Clinton and Trump will answer questions about national security, military affairs and veterans issues in front of an audience mainly made up of members of the military. The two candidates will not be on the stage at the same time, but will instead go back to back.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s worth noting that Lauer is listed as a\u00a0\u201cnotable past member<\/a>\u201d on the Clinton Global Initiative\u2019s website \u2014 along with Anderson Cooper and Katie Couric.<\/p>\n

In the past, a Clinton Foundation official has said that the journalists who are part of the foundation were never asked to pay the $20,000 member fee.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn fact, in 2012, we reclassified members of the media who participate as \u2018guests\u2019 rather than \u2018members\u2019 to acknowledge this distinction,\u201d the official has said<\/a>.<\/p>\n
