Oh the priorities of the Fox network.
According to E! News, the network has decided to nix the airing of President Obama’s prime-time press conference on Wednesday timed to mark his 100th day in office, and instead continue with the regularly scheduled program of “Lie to Me”- a show about a man who can read liars.
The network did however say in a statement yesterday, that it would “alert Lie to Me viewers to the press conference with an onscreen graphic.”
Other competitors such as ABC, CBS and NBC, have all booked the 8 pm Wednesday slot for President Obama.
