No Webcast of the White House Press Briefing?
A press briefing is scheduled at 12:30 but the usual link to a Webcast is missing.

http://www.whitehouse.gov/

Can anyone turn up another link?

I was really looking forward to the daily Scotty grilling.

2. I see it now
They seem to have waited until the stroke of 12:30 to put up the link--usually it's up earlier. Nothing happening yet, though.

:eyes:

Does the president find it acceptable for members of his staff to invoke their fifth amendment rights in a criminal investigation and still remain on the payroll?

Does the president know whether members of his staff have invoked their right against self-incrimination in the Plame investigation?

questions Josh Marshall would like answers to.

9. I'm sorry..but get those foreign goofs out of that press pool
Edited on Mon Feb-23-04 01:11 PM by SoCalDem
They are only there so that Scott can call on them when things get tough.. They NEVER ask any questions of consequence.. and that fool Lester Kinsolving :grr:..


edit to add... The foreign press should have their own conferences with him and have interpreters there so that the questions could be asked without ole Scott pretending to not understand.,

13. No idea what happened
There was a test pattern up starting at 12:30, then it crashed my Mac in a big way, and now the press briefing is over with a note on the Web site promising that the video will be available.
