Eckersley proposes 10 courthouse debates.

Long accepts then changes his mind and proposes 3 debates.

In negotiations, this is called a counter-offer.

Is the KSNF Debate really their's in Joplin or a re-broadcast of their sister station in Springfield?

The counter-offer at Grants Beach Park was, "You're under arrest."

It is really Joplin/KSNF/KODE's. It will be held at Joplin High School.

Can't wait to see their production of this local event. Good for them. If they do as good a job as they do on their LIVE Breaking News events from advertisers businesses having a sale or waxing Gary Bandy's eyebrows, it should be compelling Television. I thought the 5pm LIVE performance not only waxing Gary's eyebrows but painting at least one nail was rivetting. Maybe Award Winning.

Long is a lightweight wimp.

Perfect for Congress.
