Current is doing something very cool with the upcoming presidential debates. Instead of the traditional stuffy political commentary that coincides with the impending boredom and scripted fluff answers that is presidential debates, Current will be broadcasting “Hack the Debate” - which will show the real-time twitter conversation in parallel.

Current & Twitter have teamed up for the very first time to integrate real-time Twitter messages (aka “tweets”) over major portions of a live television broadcast.

Hack the debate by adding your Twitter posts to our live broadcast of the 2008 Presidential Debates.

We will broadcast as many of your debate tweets as possible right over Obama & McCain, in real time, on our live broadcast.

Want to participate?
Follow #current on Twitter search or follow @current on Twitter for additional details. Or, check out the site for more details on how YOU can participate.

UPDATE:
“current: @abrudtkuhl tweets will be filtered to meet broadcast standards. i answer some of this here if you’d like to link: http://tinyurl.com/4ujmmg” - twitter
