Rand Paul Townhall Livestream, 9PM EST

This is beyond stupid. I don't want to download the periscope app. He should have live streamed on YouTube. It's a much larger platform. I'm out.

Let's remain patient.

This is a historical first - live internet stream vs establishment TV debate

They started it back up using a completely different link. The old link no longer works.

you don't need the app to watch it

 

[TomtheTinker]

the numbers of viewers arent being showed any more.

If you're not getting the live periscope or if it cuts off again just go to https://www.periscope.tv/DrRandPaul/

I'm supposedly subscribed on facebook to the stream and can't find it anywhere. This is totally non-epic and if this is what they had in mind he should have done the undercard debate IMO. I hope they bring it together.

Very dumb idea to cut the stream, something designated as a live stream national town hall at 9pm EST should start at that time and be exactly what was advertised.

Cutting it off and waiting to do other stuff just kills momentum.

The campaign digital team hasn't really made many mistakes that I felt nitpicky about but this is one of them.

Yeah, he lost half of his viewers lol.. It was almost 4,000 before it ended, now 2,500 something.

Trump is friggin live on youtube practically every night for a full hour, it is so easy. Everyone uses youtube, this is supposed to be a top tier campaign but we are using periscope and changing live stream links during the broadcast.

 

[statist slayer]

Once again, his team fucks up. No link on FB.

 

[Rudeman]

Up to 3000 and climbing at a rapid pace.

 

[CPUd]

some of y'all are old and resistant to change. I'm somewhere in between, LOL.

 

[FriedChicken]

They haven't even updated facebook with a post for 22 minutes. Facebook is bigger than twitter ...

Youtube is more accessible but I must say I do like the platform with the video and twitter stream on top of it...

(And I'm not even on twitter lol )

Pretty nice.

Exactly why I said in one of the previous threads that I hope the stream doesn't show the number of viewers. Watch what the media will say about this if it doesn't get better.

 

[CPUd]

Pappy van Winkle, he wouldn't say it though.

 

[squirl22]

he' s started asking questions now
