CNN Pulling Out ALL the Stops for Debate Coverage
Source: CNN Pressroom: CNN will dedicate two networks and an entire evening of prime-time coverage for the first presidential debate on Thursday, Sept. 30. The CNN election team led by Wolf Blitzer will kick off CNN’s six-hour event at 7 p.m. with Anderson Cooper and Paula Zahn both anchoring their shows from the site of the debate in Coral Gables, Florida. A highlight of CNN’s debate coverage will be an innovative real-time meter gauging the reaction of a focus group of undecided voters in Columbus, Ohio.
