When Network Slobbering Stopped

President Barack Obama asked to address the nation in prime time on the major broadcast networks to announce that the Affordable Care Act had reached 7 million enrollees. Those networks did not, however, accommodate the White House’s request, according to a report via BuzzFeed’s Evan McMorris-Santoro. “Three sources familiar with the request confirmed the White House asked for the prime time slot in their effort both to emphasize a bright moment following the challenging roll out and, more important, to try to reintroduce the country to a law that remains unpopular.”
