Republicans come to town, and Fox 35 will be there

Roger Simmons, September 21, 2011

The latest in the series of debates for the Republican candidates seeking to oust President Obama takes place in Orlando on Thursday night.

The Presidency 5 debate will be televised by Fox News Channel from 8-11 p.m. In a bit of corporate synergy, Fox 35 will air part of its 11 p.m. newscast from the debate.

“Late assignment. Will anchor live from ‘Presidency 5’ at the OC Convention Center Thursday. Every GOP Presidential candidate will be there,” WOFL anchor Cale Ramaker tweeted on Tuesday.

Meanwhile, if you missed it, there’s a great Orlando Sentinel Q&A with Fox 35 GM Dennis Welsh, who discussed what he’s doing to make WOFL’s newscasts stand out in crowded Orlando TV news scene. Check it out here.
