Fox Refuses To Air Obama’s Press Conference

Guess which network has decided not to air President Obama’s prime time address tomorrow night? And the news-less CW doesn’t count [click here to read].

While ABC, NBC and CBS are giving up precious sweeps month real estate for the president’s press conference marking his first 100 days, Fox announced Monday that it will instead stick to its regular programming – an episode of “Lie to Me.”

The network, known for its conservative news slant, is the lone broadcast channel that turned down President Obama’s request for the time.

Tomorrow night’s speech will be the third prime time news conference in Obama’s 100-day presidency. It also marks the first time a broadcast network has refused his request.

    once again a topic that should have some comments has nothing . isnt funny that fox would rather show “family guy ” instead of showing obama speak . not pulling the race card but the fact is its right in our faces that race does still in fact matter even with our new president …when will blacks not be judged on color and when will black have the same rights as others cause right now we dont we only have what they feel they want us to have and right now as a people we are just accepting it as if its ok
