Well, just got the news that the President is doing a news conference tonight. That stinks. I was looking forward to watching my favorite television program tonight. Of course the broadcast networks are going wall-to-wall with it.
I wonder whether the President on television draws better ratings than regular programming. With cable and public television, the general public could have access to whatever the President will try to do to untarnish his image in order to get himself re-elected without disrupting the rest of the country's recreational TV viewing.
If broadcast TV has to cover this, why can't they hold these things on Friday night or Saturday? The people who are interested in it will be sure to watch. (I usually prefer to read the recap in the newspaper anyway.)
Thank goodness that we have longer nights (due to Summer-time.) I will go outside and till my garden instead of watching "American Idol."
