Despite conflicting reports of the status of the NBC Republican debate scheduled Monday in Florida, an NBC source tells TPM plans for the debate continue:

“Preparations for the NBC News, National Journal, Tampa Bay Times debate continue. We fully intend to proceed with this long-planned event and we hope and expect all the qualifying candidates will participate.”

“Out of an abundance of caution, the network left the standard program listings in place – ‘Fear Factor’ at 9, ‘Rock Center with Brian Williams’ at 10. Those listings will update with more timely information as it becomes known.”
