Today Show Hits Battlegrounds

This morning Steve is on an excellent adventure as ABC News and USA Today kick off their “50 States, 50 Days” campaign coverage. (You can follow his Twitter updates on the right hand column of the blog.) Look for his report later today.

And this morning, NBC’s Today show announced it will take their show on the road and broadcast live from four battleground states later this month. Starting Monday, September 22nd, Matt Lauer, Meredith Vieira, Ann Curry and Al Roker will take the show to Philadelphia; on Tuesday it’s Tampa, Florida; Wednesday, Norfolk, Virginia and the series wraps up Thursday in Detroit. That is also the day before the first presidential debate in Oxford, Mississippi.

Create a social media strategy, launch your campaign, and track the results in our Social Media Marketing Boot Camp starting February 16. The online event and workshop will feature speakers including The Onion‘s Baratunde Thurston (left), Facebook’s Morin Oluwole, and bitly’s Tim Devane. Register now.
