Live coverage of the US Presidential Debate between Joe Biden and Donald Trump. In addition to Seven’s coverage, CNN will also have coverage from 7am AEST until 3pm AEST, which will also be simulcasted on Sky News Australia between 11AM and 1PM. So far no coverage listed on either Fox News, CNBC, Sky News UK, or bizarrely, BBC News. No coverage listed on the ABC News Channel either, which normally takes the debates. ---

No coverage listed on the ABC News Channel either, which normally takes the debates. It’s an official CNN debate this year, not the usual one done by Commission on Presidential Debates, which is why I imagine a lot aren’t taking it CNN is allowing US networks to simulcast but the CNN bug has to be there etc, it has to be advertised as a simulcast of the “CNN Presidential Debate” Really sucks tbh, the clean feed in previous years was really helpful > **[CNN Says It Will Make Presidential Debate Available For Simulcast On Other...](https://deadline.com/2024/05/trump-biden-debate-cnn-1235921669/)** > > The June 27 event will be the first debate between Joe Biden and Donald Trump this cycle. ---

Presumably that might also be why BBC and ABC may not be taking it (either don’t have a formal agreement with CNN, or don’t/can’t show branded coverage). ---

Yep I’d say so The articles I’ve seen mention US networks only, obviously Seven has/has had links with CNN before (2020 election a big example) Not sure specifically for international network or online rules (ABCN24 streams on YouTube for free etc) ---

They have turned of the ABC News Channel stream before (Queen’s funeral, presumably due to a condition from the BBC). ---

Hopefully they take NBC this year, as it would at least be an alternative to Nine who only have access to CNN. SBS will probably take ABC (US), while 10 will take CBS. ---
