Amid the fallout over President Biden’s performance in the first presidential debate against Republican rival and former President Donald Trump, ABC’s George Stephanopoulos is interviewing Biden on Friday during a campaign swing in Wisconsin.
That interview is slated for broadcast on ABC stations at 8 p.m. Eastern and 8 p.m. Pacific time, which means it will be tape-delayed for West Coast viewers.

But are there ways to see the interview early in the Pacific time zone?
There are options. ABC said it will be releasing a transcript of the interview, and major news organizations are likely to offer live coverage as soon as they receive that transcript — and while the Stephanopoulos-Biden conversation begins airing in the Eastern time zone.
Plus, ABC News offers various live-streamed feeds, which are worth checking on the West Coast:
• The ABC News Live video stream is also available via the news organization’s apps for smartphones, tablets and devices that include Roku, Apple TV and Amazon Fire TV
One way to get an early look at the Biden interview on the West Coast will be via highlights on ABC’s World News Tonight With David Muir, which airs at 3:30 p.m. Pacific time on KABC-TV Channel 7 in the Los Angeles media market.
Otherwise, the prime-time special featuring the entire interview will be broadcast on West Coast ABC stations at 8 p.m. Pacific time.
In case you miss it, the full interview will air again at 8 a.m. Sunday on This Week with George Stephanopoulos.
