NBC News was the first network out of the gate last month when it announced it would be hosting a Republican Presidential primary debate next Spring. Now it appears Fox News is the next network to get in on the primary action.
Hal Boedeker in the Orlando Sentinel reports that FNC is the likely to sign a deal with the Florida GOP to host a primary debate in the state in October, 2011.
