How to Stream Tonight's Presidential Debate For Free, No Cable Required

YouTube



Whether you’re watching on a computer or a smartphone, one of the easiest ways to watch the debate is on YouTube.

NBC News is livestreaming the debate on its YouTube channel.
PBS Newshour also has a livestream of the debate on YouTube.
And C-SPAN will have its own stream of the debate on YouTube.

Twitter

Twitter is livestreaming Bloomberg TV’s coverage of the second debate at debates.twitter.com. The pre-show kicks off at 8:30pm ET, 5:30pm PT.
Facebook

Facebook is partnering with ABC News for a livestream of the debate.
PBS Newshour will also have a Facebook livestream which will be followed by a half hour of analysis.
Telemundo will also have a Facebook livestream with coverage in Spanish.

AltspaceVR - Virtual Reality

Just as they did for the first debate, AltspaceVR has partnered with NBC News to deliver a virtual reality experience of the second debate. If you own a Samsung Gear VR, HTC Vive, or Oculus Rift, you can go to AltspaceVR for more information. The 2D “virtual reality” experience is also available on Mac and PC.
Websites

Most of the major news outlets will also have livestreams on their homepages. There’s CNN, Fox News, MSNBC, CBS News, ABC News, NBC News, C-SPAN, and plenty of others.

If you have a cable subscription, but want to watch one of the cable networks on your devices, you also have that option. We at Gizmodo call these the “half-cord” options. All of these require a cable subscription to login. So don’t forget to borrow your mom’s login details before attempting any of these.
CNN Half-Cord

You can watch CNN Go on your iPhone or iPad, Android, and Windows Phone.
You can fire up the CNN mobile apps for Kindle Fire and Windows 10.
Or you can watch using the CNN app for Apple TV and Roku.

Fox News Half-Cord

You can watch Fox News on your iPhone or iPad, and Android.
You can fire up the Fox News mobile apps for Kindle Fire and Windows 10.
Or you can watch using the Fox News app for Apple TV and Roku.
