As Queensland’s political landscape heats up, 4BC is set to present live coverage of Queensland Media Club’s Queensland Election Leaders’ Debate: Miles vs. Crisafulli on Wednesday, October 16.
Sofie Formica will host her 4BCAfternoons show live from the Brisbane Convention Centre, giving listeners exclusive access to the debate.
Enhancing the 4BC coverage, Mornings host Bill McDonald will be on site in the debate room, delivering real-time updates and insights. His immediate perspective will offer audiences a dynamic taste of the debate, keeping them up with minute-by-minute developments.
This debate is a critical moment in the lead-up to the State election on Saturday, October 26. It builds on the momentum from The Great Debate, the forum presented by 9News Queensland in collaboration with 4BC and the Brisbane Times. That forum allowed Queenslanders to engage directly with both candidates: Labor Premier Steven Miles and Liberal National Party Leader David Crisafulli. With Sofie Formica and a panel of experts asking incisive questions, the debate illuminated key issues and set the stage for the remainder of the campaign.
The Great Debate rated impressively, highlighting Nine’s strong news brand across the State while reflecting its commitment to providing essential insights for voters.
Leading up to the State election, 4BC will continue to offer extensive coverage in its live and local lineup, keeping listeners on the pulse as they decide their voting intentions on October 26.
