“Daddy’s more important than Adam Lambert, honey”
President Obama, already the scourge of network execs for hijacking their channels during primetime, is planning another nationally televised address next week to discuss the first 100 days of his presidency — during sweeps! Jeez, doesn’t that guy have any sense of what’s important?
Officials from the Obama administration have asked the major broadcast networks for up to an hour of primetime next Wednesday at 8, according to sources familiar with the request…
By scheduling a press conference on the night, the president is positioning himself to directly participate in the debate over his early performance…
Programmers have been peeved at President Obama’s numerous primetime appearances since taking office, because every unscheduled speech or press conference results in a loss of ad revenue.
Sheesh. What a jerk. This guy acts like he’s the president or someth– oh. Right.



Watch out–here come the comments about how he’s destroying America. Duck!
Hopefully that’s 8pm Eastern. Otherwise he’s pre-empting Lost and holy fuck
it would help the economy if we could sell ads for this shit.
besides, then he could break his speech into bite sized morsels that the average American could pay attention to.
Also, to echo Punch: if this cuts into Lost, I’m moving to Canada.
“The economy…is sound. We are seeing…signs of recovery.
And now…please welcome to the stage….The Shins!!”
It’s three fingers this time, Sasha. If you ever come on stage again it’ll be the Full Monty.
It’s still better than anything Tyler Perry’s putting on.
good call Taco. Just wondering, will Obama be performing any songs with his band, Sexual Chocolate?
I THOUGHT THE CAMPAIGN WAS OVER!
Here’s a great idea: why don’t the network execs grow some balls and tell B. O. to pick a more convenient time.
