CNN coverage to offer viewers an on-the-ground experience from U.s. political conventions

MUMBAI: Live from multiple locations in the Convention Halls and CNN Grills, viewers to have ringside seats for the Republican and Democratic National Conventions

CNN will offer viewers nonstop, unbiased programming across on-air and digital platforms at the U.S. Republican and Democratic National Conventions beginning later this month. The network?s robust political team will travel to Tampa, Florida, and Charlotte, North Carolina, for live programming and events from locations on the convention floors, sky booths and a studio integrated into the CNN Grills1.

?As the only U.S. cable news channel that has not picked sides in this election, CNN has a unique lens with which to cover these conventions,? said Sam Feist, CNN Washington bureau chief and senior vice president. ?In Tampa and in Charlotte, we will give both parties an opportunity to showcase their platforms while also asking tough questions of Republicans and Democrats. Coverage of the conventions will dominate our air over two weeks as CNN‘s deep bench of anchors, political reporters and analysts help Americans make an informed choice about their vote.?
