You Line, We Line, We All Line for Online Debates!

by Todd Epp

Yahoo and some other online outfits are going to host the first online Presidential debates.

Very exciting and very cool.

But will we be able to see Dick Nixon, er, Mitt Romney sweat through his five o’clock shadow, er, overly dyed hair?

The Hollywood Reporter has the story.

Presidential candidates to debate via Internet
Yahoo!, the Huffington Post and Web magazine Slate will engineer two presidential debates conducted online — apparently the first of their kind — that will feature candidates participating from separate locations with a real-time connection to voters via the Internet.

About Media Criticism

Media Criticism takes a critical look at the media's coverage of news, politics, celebrities, and current events. It is not intended as a replacement for traditional media; rather, it is an analytical lens through which mainstream journalism can be viewed.
