Presidential Debates 2008


Just taking a second to pimp my alma mata, Hofstra University, which is hosting the Presidential Debates tomorrow night...

It's normally home to Hofstra University's volleyball team, the Pride. But on Wednesday, the school's Physical Fitness Center will host "Spin Alley" - where reporters will interview party loyalists live immediately following the presidential debate. More than 3,100 reporters and bloggers, with about 30 satellite trucks, are expected to descend on the Hempstead campus to cover the event. ... Next door, the Physical Fitness Center has been transformed into a media filing center, with banks of white tables and flat-screen TVs. Gray carpet covers the volleyball court, black-and-blue curtains hide wiring and "Debate '08" banners hang from the rafters. There's plenty of floor space for "Spin Alley." [newsday]
