US PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE : Wednesday at 11.00am on Nine and 9Now
Donald Trump and Joe Biden will go head-to-head in the first of three US presidential debates tomorrow, with live coverage to be shown on Nine and 9Now from 11.00am AEST…
Peter Overton will present the broadcast from our American partners CNN, with the entire debate to be aired commercial-free.
Chief Nine News U.S. Correspondent Amelia Adams will be reporting live on location in Cleveland, Ohio.
Senior Nine News political reporter Charles Croucher will be providing expert analysis.
The coronavirus pandemic has dramatically altered the way in which the Republican and Democratic presidential campaigns have been fought this year, with these debates taking on even more significance than ever.
The three debates are expected to be the only times the two presidential candidates will appear alongside each other before the US election is held on November 3
With the countdown on to one of the most important US elections in recent times, the debates are sure to provide some of the top political moments of this campaign season.
Nine’s Morning News will follow the coverage at 12.30pm AEST.

10 showing coverage on their Facebook, Twitter and YouTube.
I’d say it will just be whatever CBS is airing.

Why not mainstream TV?

Nine promoting that the debate will be shown commercial-free is pretty meaningless considering the debate’s format means there won’t be an opportunity for networks to air ads during it anyway

But normal Australian viewers wouldn’t know that.

Too much effort? I’d say this will just be whatever CBS puts to air, if they were to air something they’d have to introduce it locally and maybe provide some commentary of their own or something.
Also, if it’s being covered by the other networks 10 might get a better result by sticking with regular programming.

then just air it on Bold like 10 have done in the past for debates. Or even God’s sakes just let CBS do the whole intro outro thing.
