NBC To Cover 'Decision 2024'

 

NBC News will offer “Decision 2024” election coverage across NBC, NBC News NOW and NBCNews.com beginning Tuesday, November 5.

Originating from a brand-new, state-of-the-art election set from 30 Rockefeller Plaza, NBC News’ marquee anchors will offer 24 hours of consecutive live coverage to viewers on their local NBC stations for the first time ever beginning at 5 p.m. ET on Election Day. 

NBC News NOW will present live programming for 40+ hours, beginning at 7 a.m. ET Tuesday and continuing late into Wednesday evening. 

NBCNews.com and the NBC News app will feature up-to-the-minute results pages for the latest in the race, as well as a comprehensive live blog powered by the whole NBC News team with the latest race calls, breaking news, live video and on-the-ground reporting.

Over 100 journalists will contribute coverage from around the country, continuing the network’s on-the-ground investment in battleground regions. Vote Watch, a network-wide effort to identify and report on false claims or misinformation if they arise, will have a dedicated desk staffed with reporters and experts who will fact-check and debunk potentially misleading stories or statements. The team will also track any voting irregularities and potential legal challenges that may arise.

New interactive production elements will be on display throughout the week, including pioneering mixed reality technology and interactive graphical elements that extend into a working newsroom space — helping viewers witness firsthand the energy of the newsroom as anchors, reporters and experts track the latest developments in the race.
