FOX, ABC, CBS, NBC all plan to air same show

April 27, 2009

FOX Broadcasting has refused to carry President Obama’s press conference Wednesday night.

“The Fox Broadcasting Company will not air the Presidential News Conference,” Fox said in a statement. “Fox’s sister networks, Fox News Channel and the Fox Business Network, will air the press conference in its entirety. Fox will be alerting viewers with an onscreen graphic at the top of the 8:00 PM (ET) hour that the press conference is available on Fox News Channel and the Fox Business Network.”

ABC, CBS and NBC have issued statements saying they will carry the president’s telecast.

FOX is skipping the press conference in order to air the show “Lie To Me.” I can’t be the only one who’s amused by that.

Via Memeorandum.
