Will Kerry get equal time to respond to President Bush's last-minute speech
In an effort to halt his deteriorating ratings, President Bush has announced that'll he'll be giving a major speech on Wednesday. "The president is said to be eager to rebut Kerry's attacks on [the] issues." I'm imagine he is, since Kerry won't be able to respond. Will Kerry be given equal time on the networks? Link (Thanks, Kevin Slavin!)
UPDATE: Brian Carnell sez that Bush's speech will not be shown on television. If that's the case, then I take back my comments about equal time for Kerry: "Okay, now you're just getting plain out there with the knee-jerk anti-Bush stuff. 'Will Kerry be given euqal time on the networks?' Um, Mark, the broadcast networks don't run campaign speeches like this live -- why would Kerry need equal time?"
