Bush Asks For TV Time

While it's customary for the networks to grant the U.S. President time for a national address, not every network has agreed to give outgoing George Bush 15 minutes of prime time on Thursday night.

The President wants to give a farewell address to the nation, but if it airs at 9 p.m. it will delay the start of hit shows like Grey's Anatomy, The Office, and CSI: Crime Scene Investigation. That could cost the networks viewers...and advertising revenue.

Look for some, but not all, the networks to comply.
