Host Gregory has been under a cloud of controversy since his December 23 gun stunt.
Obama to David Gregory’s Rescue
Last Friday NBC’s David Gregory announced a surprise visit by President Obama for the weekend’s Meet The Press.
Gregory made the announcement on his Twitter account
saying, “Excited to announce that President @BarackObama will be my exclusive guest this Sunday on @MeetthePress.”
This
reverses Gregory’s announced vacation. He was not scheduled to be on this weekend.
Host Gregory has been under a cloud of controversy since his December 23 gun stunt. During last Sunday’s broadcast
Gregory broke Washington D.C.’s strict gun banning laws when he brandished an illegal 30-round rifle magazine on the air in the D.C. studios.
So what gives? Why did the President suddenly appear on
Meet The Press? Could it be to help Gregory out of his troubles? This is obviously a presidential back patting for Gregory so that maybe the D.C. police will back off.
