Live stream on YouTube: the President's First 100 Days News Conference
April 29, 2009
(Cross-posted from the
YouTube Blog
)
The first three months of the Obama Administration have brought the new American President unprecedented challenges. Back in November, when he was elected, everyone knew the economy and the Middle East would be critical issues for Obama to attack early on. But like every president before him, he's had to deal with the unexpected as well: who could have predicted pirates off the Somali Coast or swine flu?
As citizens and pundits from all political perspectives analyze the President's first 100 days in office today, Obama himself will address the nation tonight on the 100-day anniversary of his inauguration -- and we're going to carry a live stream of the conference from the
White House YouTube channel
. Be sure to tune in at 8pm EDT to watch it live.
We're also featuring commentary and analysis from top news organizations on our homepage today.
Hear Karl Rove
grade the President on Fox News. Get
a re-cap
from Al-Jazeera on what Obama has accomplished in his opening act. Watch the Washington Post
talk with Americans
in DC about their early impressions of the new President.
You can join in the conversation by making a video: How is the Obama Administration doing, and what advice would you give the President moving forward? Upload your thoughts to YouTube and add them as a video response to this
Citizentube video
, and we'll feature some of them on our News page tomorrow.
Finally, don't forget to come to
youtube.com/whitehouse
at 8pm EDT to watch President Obama address the nation.
