KSBY-TV SET TO BROADCAST FOUR POLITICAL DEBATES
SAN LUIS OBISPO – KSBY-TV, the NBC affiliate for San Luis Obispo and Santa
Barbara Counties, will broadcast four political debates ahead of the June 5, 2018,
primary election.
“These debates, along with all of the special reports in our newscasts on the races
and initiatives leading up to the June primary, will help our viewers make choices
which will impact their lives for years to come,” said Kathleen Choal, KSBY president
and general manager.
On Wednesday, May 2, the candidates for San Luis Obispo County Sheriff, incumbent
Ian Parkinson and challenger Greg Clayton, will face off in a 60-minute debate
originating from the KSBY studios. The event will air live from 6:00p.m. to 7:00p.m.
and preempt KSBY News at 6:00p.m.
A debate between the three candidates seeking to represent the 24th District in the
U.S. Congress, incumbent Salud Carbajal, Justin Fareed and Michael Erin Woody, will
air from 4:00p.m. to 5:00p.m. on Sunday, May 20. California’s 24th Congressional
District includes Santa Barbara, San Luis Obispo and northern Ventura Counties,
stretching some 200 miles of coast from Ventura to Ragged Point at the San Luis
Obispo-Monterey county line, and running inland to the Temblor Range at the edge
of the San Joaquin Valley and south to Los Padres National Forest.
During both debates, candidates will reply to select questions supplied from viewers
through KSBY’s social media platforms. Both events will be commercial-free and
moderated by KSBY News anchors Richard Gearhart and Carina Corral.
KSBY will also broadcast two gubernatorial debates. The first will air on Sunday,
April 29, from 5:30p.m. to 7:00p.m. and is being produced by NBC affiliate KSEE-TV
in Fresno. The second debate, moderated by NBC’s Chuck Todd and produced by
NBC Bay Area, will air on Tuesday, May 8, from 6:30p.m. to 8:00p.m.
All debates will stream live on the station’s website at www.ksby.com.
