Obama To Appear On Letterman In Media Blitz
Source: Huffington Post

NEW YORK — President Barack Obama is visiting David Letterman on Monday, part of a media blitz to sell his health care plan.

CBS says it would make the first visit ever by a sitting president to Letterman's "Late Show." Obama has appeared on Letterman's show five times before, the last during the campaign in September 2008.

The president is scheduled to visit Sunday morning talk shows this weekend on ABC, CBS, NBC and CNN. That's a highly unusual schedule, even for a president eager to get his message across throughout the media.

Obama will be the sole guest on Monday's "Late Show."

Letterman will be all business. This will be good.

5. Agreed if he were to go on the Daily show
and laugh a few times, then come down to business he would reach a HUGE audience.

8. CNN or MSNBC reported that Pres. Obama will be the only guest that night so it'll be longer then
just one or two segments.

7. Since he can't rely on the MSM to report anything involving truth, he has to speak for himself.
If we had actual journalists working these days . . .
