The National Constitution Center is proud to be hosting the 2008 Democratic
Pennsylvania Primary Debate. Before the ABC network cameras roll,
before Senators Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama take the stage, the members of
the National Constitution Center will get a remarkable opportunity to speak to
the producers, the editors and the political experts about the making of this
historic broadcast.
You’ll see the actual stage set located inside the Center’s intimate Kimmel
Theater, where visitors usually see Freedom Rising. And you’ll
learn exactly what it takes to plan, produce and broadcast the debate from the
professionals in charge. Speakers include David Chalian, who
helps oversee the editorial content of all political news presented by ABC News;
Roger Goodman, a veteran producer and director of many of the
network’s special television events, including 10 Olympic Games and every
presidential election and political convention since 1981; Mark
Halperin, ABC’s political analyst and editor-at-large at TIME
magazine, whose online publication The Note has been called the most
influential tip sheet in American politics by the New York Times and
the Wall Street Journal; and Jake Tapper, senior
political reporter for ABC News. Jane Eisner, Vice
President of National Programs and Initiatives at the Center, will be
moderating.
