Question 2 debate: Richard Ziser and Liz Moore, 2002 September 26

Question 2 was an anti-same-sex marriage constitutional amendment passed by popular referendum in Nevada in 2000 and 2002. This video records a debate between Richard Ziser, director of the referendum's sponsoring organization, the Coalition for the Protection of Marriage in Nevada [CPM], and Liz Moore, director of Equal Rights Nevada [ERN], an organization established by the Nevada queer community to fight Question 2. The program which hosted this debate, moderated by announcer Nancy Byrne, was Day One Vegas, a call-in half-hour public affairs program sponsored by the Las Vegas Sun newspaper and broadcast on Las Vegas ONE, a 24-hour local news network which was a collaboration among the Las Vegas Sun, KLAS-TV Channel 8, and Prime Cable [Prime was purchased in 1998 by Cox Cable/Cox Communications], on channels 1 and 39. The general manager of Las Vegas ONE was Robert "Bob" Stoldal. The network operated from April 6, 1998 through January 9, 2010.
