If Comcast's tv listings are correct, KSL will be delaying the broadcast of Trump's town all until 8 p.m., which KTVX will be showing Biden live at 6 p.m. I wonder if any other stations are going to show Trump tape-delayed, or if KSL is being an outlier.
If they are the only one, I wonder what the story is. With KSL's ownership wanting family-friendly programming on tv, I wonder if KSL is concerned about the suitability of Trump for the prime access hours when many young children will be watching.

The Nocable.org TV listings show a two hour "TBA" (to be announced) programming block between 7-9 PM tonight for channels 4 & 5. I'm guessing that's the town hall meetings for Biden and Trump, respectively.
When I had Comcast cable, their on screen channel guide was frequently off by one hour. If that's what you're looking at to determine when the town hall programs are on, I'd check ABC or NBC at 7 PM to see if they're on. I read that both meetings are scheduled to start at 8 PM Eastern time, which probably means they'll start an hour earlier in the Mountain time zone.

The town halls are network exclusive so the only relevant stations for that in Utah are KSL and KTVX. www.ksl.com/article/50031453/split-screen-trump-and-biden-to-headline-dueling-town-hallsI'm going by the ex-Tribune, now Nexstar, listings at Zap2it.com. They are the source that I find reliable. (Other sources frequently are wrong.) The problem is that both KSL and KTVX are apparently airing the 3rd Congressional District debate live at 6. I agree that's a bigger deal. KTVX is airing the Biden Town Hall 7-9PM (scheduled at 2 hours) and KSL is running the Trump Town Hall 8-9 (scheduled for 1 hour.) Given the conflicts that seems like a reasonable compromise. |
