What would be the best time for Committee to have public hearings? [View all]

And for how long for each session?

I suppose they would need to take into consideration the attention span of the American people?

It should not be anti-climatic.

How many times per week should they meet?

Will they call live witnesses?

In my opinion, Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays would be the perfect schedule. Preferably, they would be in prime time for about two hours with each session. They should leave each session with people wanting more information. Do not bore your "audience".

At the rate they are moving with witnesses, they may be able to start their public hearings by the middle of May, it seems to me.

It could be the best political television since Watergate, if they plan it correctly.
