George W Bush has once again decided to hold a primtetime press conference for a tuesday evening. no doubt 24 (and to a lesser extent, Quentin's appearance on American Idol) will get pre-empted for this cheeseball. oh, we like him. the press conference (he'll no doubt won't be taking any questions, though) starts at 8:30. he just wants to make sure we don't see 24, doesn't he?
oh, cool. that link up top goes to a message mentioning Fox are considering putting the press conference (is the press really gonna be there? as more than note-takers?) on FoxNews and run American Idol, and i presume 24, on Fox as usual. that'd be the smart thing to do.
update:
big commotion over at Fox about what to do with tomorrow press conference (or not). the idea that was made official for a few minutes was that they'd show the Bush (boo) press conference live and air the two shows next sunday instead. now it seems Fox just wants to be sure about what they're gonna do. if they do end up airing 24 next sunday, though, i'm not gonna argue -- two back-to-back episodes of 24 in a matter of days is fine by me.
and there you go... it's now official (click for Bush's stupid boy-grin):
The network moved "24" to 9 p.m. Sunday
about that press conference thingy.
The president is expected to field questions on Iraq and issues raised by the 9/11 commission about his administration's preparedness for the attacks.
yeah, right. complete fubar in Iraq -- check.
9/11 Commission grills Dr Rice and learns that the title of the august 6th memo was "Bin Laden Determined to Strike in U.S." -- check.
... and the president chooses this week to field questions??? eek. someone's not doing his job right.
oops.
may 2002:
White House press secretary Ari Fleischer told reporters yesterday said the headline on the document was, "Bin Laden Determined to Strike the United States." But sources who have read the memo said the headline ended with the phrase "in U.S."
forthcoming, all of them.
