OVERVIEW

Fox News wanted to give Facebook users the opportunity to submit questions that would be asked during the first Republican Presidential Debate of the 2016 election.

HOW IT WORKED

Prior to the debate, Fox News utilized Telescope’s Uploader product , Facebook users could submit a photo, video, and text questions for the candidates. Fox News was then able to log into Telescope’s CONNECT moderation platform to review and select questions to ask the candidates live on-air. Telescope was then able to send approved questions to VizRT, Fox News on-air graphics provider, to visualize the questions, users Facebook profile photos, and videos on air.
