FIRST TIME TV DEBATE HELD ON THIS DAY
On September 26, 1960, for the first time in U.S. history, a
debate between major party presidential candidates was
broadcast on live television. The presidential hopefuls,
John F. Kennedy, a Democratic senator of Massachusetts,
and Richard M. Nixon, the vice president of the United States,
met in a Chicago studio to discuss U.S. domestic matters.
Kennedy emerged the apparent winner from this first of
four televised debates.
