this story...

1) he knows what he's going to say is mostly fluff, won't hold true at all, and sets an agenda he would need to accomplish (or at least be in the direction of accomplishing) before november, which is likely impossible.

2) he knows that as a supporter of big business and media conglomerates, the last thing he wants to do is offend them by having them lose their may sweeps advertising dollars...

either way, its stupid.

ouch!!! i got out of the article that it's a slap in the face to him that the networks don't want to carry it!

it's like they're saying, "look here, Mr. President. we don't want to listen to you repeat the same the same thing you said a month ago or listen to the same pre-recorded soundbites we've been listening to since then. we rearranged or programming for you, once, and we're not doing it again. call us up when you have some 'real' news to report. let's fact it. Fear Factor and The Swan are much more important."

or it could be the networks *protecting* him -- if he looks bad on camera 'cause of what he says here (or what's asked of him by the press afterwords), EVERYBODY notices.

the less he's in front of the camera in ways that can't be avoided, the better...
