President Obama invited contingents from three local stations to the White House today for interviews focusing on his new jobs bill.
This morning the President sat down with Vicki Yates of WTVF in Nashville; Cameron Kent of WXII in Greensboro-Winston-Salem, NC; and Jim Payne of WESH in Orlando.
According to the White House, Obama wants to communicate “the need for Congress to pass the American Jobs Act now to put more people back to work and more money in the pockets of working Americans.”
WTVF, WXII, and WESH will begin airing portions of their interviews, which were limited to seven minutes, this evening.
The President has made a habit of inviting local stations to the White House this year…
