CNN teams with Jubilee to surround James Talarico
The YouTube channel famous for its videos of groups of people interrogating one with a fetish for debate is heading to the big time.
CNN has teamed up with Jubilee, a YouTube channel known for its "Debate me, bro" format, to surround Texas senatorial candidate James Talarico in a debate. Jubilee, the creators of the "Surrounded" video series, will have a spot on their YouTube channel after the debate airs. The event, a Town Hall style discussion, will take place on October 14 at 8 P.M. Eastern and will be moderated by Erin Burnett.
It will feature a panel of twenty individuals arguing against Talarico, including prominent far-right personalities like Ben Shapiro and Jordan Peterson. This partnership aims to foster open dialogue, create a space for direct conversations, and present facts to inform voters' decisions. Talarico's opponent, Ken Paxton, has declined to participate, though an invitation has been extended to him.
