- YouTube has announced that for the first time the October general election debates will be available online via live streaming.
- “You can watch the debates live and in full on the YouTube Elections Hub, via our partners at ABC News, who will be live streaming all four debates on the ABC News YouTube channel,” notes the YouTube Blog.
- “No matter where you are in the world or how you’ll be accessing the Internet, you’ll be able to watch the most important events of the 2012 election on YouTube.”
- In addition to the live broadcasts, YouTube will provide commentary and analysis via the eight YouTube Election Hub partners: ABC News, Al Jazeera English, BuzzFeed, Larry King, The New York Times, Phil DeFranco, Univision and the Wall Street Journal.
- Each of these partners “will be providing their own unique live and on-demand coverage of the four debates before, during and after. And Univision will also offer a version of the debates translated into Spanish, live,” according to the blog.
- For those who may have missed last night’s first Presidential debate from the University of Denver, YouTube has the full debate — in addition to highlight clips — available at youtube.com/politics.
