PBS Newshour's James Blue On The Making Of A Democratic Debate

Adrees Latif/Reuters PBS Newshour

Hillary Clinton inched-out a razor thin victory in Iowa last week. Tomorrow night, we’ll see if Senator Bernie Sanders can parlay his New England connection into a victory in the New Hampshire Primary. And on Thursday night, the two contenders will meet in Milwaukee for their 7th debate of this primary season. It will be the first without former Maryland Governor Martin O’Malley, who suspended his campaign after a meager showing in Iowa.

Tom's guest this morning is James Blue, who is the Senior Content and Special Projects Producer for the PBS Newshour. Blue, who lives in Baltimore, is producing the two-hour debate, which will be moderated by Gwen Ifill and Judy Woodruff. It will air on PBS and right here on WYPR, live from Milwaukee, at 9:00pm Thursday. WYPR will also carry NPR’s live coverage of the New Hampshire primary Tuesday beginning at 8:00pm.

Host, Midday (M-F 12:00-1:00)
