Sorry, one last thing from my re-watch of the OJ doc. I completely forgot about Peter Jennings having to explain to his viewers why ABC was going to show Clinton's State of the Union address as opposed to going to coverage of the civil trail verdict.
Is it 50/50 that at least one network (FOX/Newsmax for a President who is a D, MSNBC for a President who is a R) would show the verdict instead of the address in 2024 or 100/0? Or would they just put the President in the small box in the corner or the screen?
