Bush News Conference Prompts RTV6 Lineup Changes Thursday
POSTED: 12:57 pm EST April 28, 2005
A prime-time news conference to be held tonight by President George W. Bush has prompted RTV6 and ABC to alter their programming lineups.
To accommodate the 7:30 p.m. news conference, ABC will not show the movie "Sweet Home Alabama" on Thursday night. At the end of the news conference, a special 90-minute edition of "Primetime Live" will air.
The "RTV6 Nightcast" will air at a special time, at 10 p.m.

CBS Not Likely To Pre-Empt 'CSI' For Bush
#108973 - 05/04/28 08:43 PM
As of this afternoon, CBS seemed to be sticking to its usual programming for tonight. The official CBS site still listed both Survivor and CSI, and the web site of the CBS affiliate in Charleston, West Virginia carried a message saying "CBS is not expected to carry President Bush's prime-time news conference tonight," while directing viewers to CBSNews.com for a webcast of the press conference. In addition, Media Life Magazine noted that CBS, NBC and Fox weren't expected to pre-empt, but that ABC would probably carry the press conference live, as it didn't have a very strong line-up for tonight anyway.

Well, considering how lame Bush's last press conference was (remember how he didn't answer the questions he was asked?), CBS is smart not to pre-empt a ratings powerhouse, especially for such non-news as a phony SS "crisis" and a big oil give-away masquerading as "energy policy". Besides, with other news stations carrying it, I don't see that CBS has to be a public-service broadcasting network.
