WarnerMedia and CNN already had placed restrictions on non-essential employee travel and asked that those involved in the production of major events be limited to those who needed to be there.
The event will be the first sole matchup on Biden and Sanders on a debate stage, but sans a large field of candidates, an audience or a big venue, it will likely have more of the feel of a regular network talk show.
