TV Newser: FNC To Host Nevada Dem Debate On Aug. 14 (Three Months Before CNN)

Fox News Channel will host an August 2007 Democratic Debate in Reno, Nevada.

The network is working with the Nevada Democratic Party and the Western Majority Project to host the debate, "which is expected to attract the top Democratic contenders for President," the press release says. It will air live on FNC and FNR on Aug. 14 in Reno.

"Fox News is proud to be a leader in coverage of the 2008 campaign season and a co-host of this important presidential debate. We look forward to working with the Nevada Democratic Party and the Western Majority Project," Roger Ailes says.

WMUR/CNN/Union Leader To Host First Presidential Debates

WASHINGTON -- New Hampshire's two leading news organizations will partner with CNN to host two presidential debates in April, executives with the three media companies announced Friday.

CNN, WMUR and The New Hampshire Union Leader will hold the back-to-back debates on April 4 and 5, the first such events to be held of the 2008 presidential campaign. CNN's Wolf Blitzer will moderate the debates with questions coming from WMUR's Scott Spradling and Union-Leader's John DiStaso. WMUR's Jennifer Vaughn will be moderating questions from the audience. The debate will be televised live nationally on CNN and throughout New Hampshire on WMUR.

The debates will be held at Saint Anselm College. The Republican candidates will debate on April 4, and the Democrats will debate on April 5.

3. Man! I agree. Why oh why would Dems even acknowledge Fox
You know, the one thing I hear the most from my Repuke friends is how soft and easy Dems are. This is just one more example. Sure with all Dems would completely ignore Fox/fake news.

9. Watch the lighting.
The last time they hosted a Democratic debate all the candidates were made to look ghoulish and sickly. It was soooo obvious.

the Democrats shouldn't get near that network.
