CBS and Fox only agreed to carry the news conference if it was both moved to 8pm and confined to one hour. Bush quickly caved.
Mess with Survivor and Fox's main moneymakers? In sweeps? He's lucky he got 8pm-9pm. |

And keep the rest of the networks free from the nonsense?
Come on, you so-called TV journalists. You spout that the whole focus of doing what you are doing is to get ratings, and then when a decision is made to get ratings instead of listen to rambling, incoherent and downright boring blather from the WORST leader the country has had in, well, centuries, you complain?
That wasn't a press conference. That was a pr stunt. I guess since the fake newscasts aren't getting Mr. Monkeyface his way, the prime time "press conference" is a Rowe plan.
