This is how democracy dies, drowned in a sea of poor web design and endless advertisement detritus. CNN even goes after YouTubers who try to stream it, so they're the only option. Unfortunately, their website is complete shit.

YouTube has worked great for me in all the other debates, but this one was restricted to CNN and their website kept lagging and messing up. It's insane that democracy is put into the hands of a profit-driven, corporate entity. PBS and C-SPAN should be given control over these things.

it was on the frontpage of CNN last night. you clicked 1 button to start the video.

If that was too hard for you, you probably need to get off the Internet./

Is there an audience? Shouldn't they be home and away from the virus if so?

No there was not

AFAIK no more campaign rallies, canvassing, etc anymore either because of coronavirus

That wasn't the problem. Their site was too crappy and lagged up. And they kept trying to run an ad every 15 seconds which just gummed things up worse.
