SOTU: ABC Had The Longest

By Brian 

Tom Shales‘ review of the SOTU coverage:

“To its credit, ABC News, alone among the three major networks, stayed on the air with coverage for the rest of the hour after Bush finished talking. Charles Gibson anchored from outside the Capitol in a topcoat.

Even more exhaustive coverage was available on HDNet, a high-definition network whose anchor is Dan Rather. Yes, that Dan Rather, who preceded and followed the speech with interviews and features, signing off at 11 p.m.”
