Watching Wednesday's debate from afar
Many Ohioans complained about the lack of audio and video access to the first of four gubernatorial debates, held in Youngstown Sept. 5.
Well, there are at least two ways to watch Wednesday's debate in Cleveland -- which is supposed to focus on education topics -- between Republican Secretary of State Ken Blackwell and U.S. Rep. Ted Strickland, a Democrat.
If you are a Time Warner Cable television customer in the Cincinnati market, and your TV goes up to channel 105, you can watch the noon debate live on the Ohio News Network. ONN will rerun the hourlong debate in its entirety at 10:30 p.m. Wednesday.
For the Internet-savvy, the ABC affiliate hosting Wednesday's debate in Cleveland, WEWS-TV, will broadcast the debate live on its web site, www.newsnet5.com
If any readers know of additional television or radio stations (or Internet sites) planning to carry Wednesday's debate live. . . please let us know so we can let you know. You can e-mail the details to me at jcraig@enquirer.com
Also, Enquirer readers can look for live blog updates here shortly before, during and after Wednesday's debate.

Post a Comment*Hey Jon, why are candidates that are on the ballot being excluded? I thought we lived in a democracy!
I hope the debate really covers educational topics. The Dispatch editorial Sunday covered Ohio's abysmal statistics. Ohio is again on a race to the bottom in terms of higher education. I would like to hear how the candidates will address that if elected.
There are a lot of years before a child gets to college, and I would like to hear how Blackwell's gimmicky 65-percent solution would help. It appears to me to be merely campaign spin and unfairly limits how local school districts can address real educational improvements.
