Wallace May Interview President of Iran

60 Minutes correspondent Mike Wallace told an audience at the New York Press Club on Tuesday that “he’s close to scoring an interview with the president of Iran, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad,” Gelf Magazine’s blog says.

The AP points out that he “seems to have a better shot at interviewing the president of Iran than the president of the United States.” Wallace’s most recent Bush interview request was rejected a few months ago, “but he said he planned to ask again after making his retirement announcement.”
