MySpace, ImpreMedia to Deliver Live Web Streaming of Presidential Debates for Hispanic Audiences
MySpace and ImpreMedia announced today that they will offer Spanish-language coverage of the Presidential and Vice Presidential Debates. ImpreMedia’s online portal, impre.com, will host live feeds of the Debates and provide simultaneous translation of the debates into Spanish. The Spanish-language live coverage will also be accessible on MySpace’s recently announced election-centric social network, MyDebates.org.
“We are proud to offer this public service to Hispanic voters,” said Arturo Duran, CEO of impreMedia Digital. “Hispanics will play a decisive role in this year’s election, and there is a great desire on the part of the Hispanic community to be informed. Our live translation of the Presidential Debates allows Spanish-preferred voters the opportunity to follow the Debates in the candidates’ own words.”
“MySpace is thrilled to once again team up with impreMedia to serve this influential, growing audience,” said Lee Brenner, Director of MySpace IMPACT. “Providing the Hispanic community with Spanish-language translation of the Presidential Debates in real-time is an important part of MyDebates.org. We want to do everything possible to encourage Hispanic voters to participate in the elections in an informed manner.”
