NEW YORK Weeks before political conventions, television networks would typically be confirming hotel reservations, booking experts and pounding the last nails in temporary studios for their top anchors.
Networks expect Democrats to host a mega video wall event, with feeds of speakers from across the country.
Fox News' Bret Baier and Martha MacCallum, who are booked for the Democrats' convention site in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, are currently the only network anchors expected to travel.
Despite the mystery of what the conventions are going to be, news executives anticipate a high level of interest among viewers.
Either way, that challenge puts an enormous amount of pressure on Ricky Kirshner, who's producing the convention for Democrats, and the Trump campaign.
