Seven including countdown on TMS
They do, I think David was referring to the fact that they actually promoted it within the service which I cannot recall happening before for any special coverage.

I noted it because I thought it was interesting that CBS News was showing an ABC News event.

The post-debate episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live! was gold. Promos for the show slipped through in the ABC America feed aired by SBS (not sure about other local networks) though to my knowledge it’s not available to watch anywhere in Australia apart from the clips on YouTube (almost all of this episode was posted).

The Guardian’s weekly Media Beast includes some highlights on how News Corp’s platforms covered the fallout of the debate, including:
One of those was Greg Sheridan of the Australian, who delivered swift analysis after the showdown.
“That was a pretty good debate. Trump came out by a short half head,” he told readers, under a live blog heading on Wednesday pronouncing the debate to have been “decent”.
By the next day, Sheridan had reframed his position. On reflection his slim victory for Trump appeared to have been downgraded to a tie.
The Australian’s readers found more flaws in that analysis, with many of the hundreds of comments on the piece expressing yet more confusion. Was it a win? A draw? Or a loss?

This week, Goggleboxers reacted to the debate and coverage that followed - Project, ABC News etc. There are a couple of vocal Trump supporters; I wasn’t surprised who they are.
