NBC’s Matt Lauer Lands First One-On-One Interview With George W. Bush
Mediaite ^ | 8-2-10 | Steve Krakauer

Posted on 08/02/2010 9:50:14 AM PDT by afraidfortherepublic

With his new book, Decision Points set for release the next day, former Pres. George W. Bush will sit down with NBC’s Today show anchor Matt Lauer in a one-hour prime time special.

It will be the first one-on-one interview Pres. Bush has agreed to since he left office. From the Today show site:

Since leaving office, President George W. Bush has never granted a one-on-one television interview about his presidency. But he’ll sit down with TODAY’s Matt Lauer in a special “Matt Lauer Reports” airing in prime time on Monday, Nov. 8.

President Bush will also join Matt live on TODAY on Wednesday, Nov. 10. He will talk about his book “Decision Points,” which will be released by Crown Publishers Nov. 9, and about key choices he has made in both his political and personal life.

Choosing NBC, over say Fox News, to tell his story shows the mass audience George W. Bush is looking for in anticipation of his book release (he also recently joined Facebook). Also, the interview takes place nearly a week after the 2010 midterm elections.

Lauer has interviewed Pres. Bush a couple times during his presidency – in 2004 and in 2006

Please. Barry Hussein Obama is a traitor! We would be lucky if we still had George W. Bush as our president. He was a leader and a patriot, unlike the Muslim Marxist who is there now. I would have voted for a third Bush term, especially given the alternatives: Captain Queeg, or the Muslim Marxist.

He didn’t need to reach across the aisle. His party in Congress reached over just fine.

Finally! A kind word. GW Bush was a great president. History will judge him so despite all the ungrateful ignorant twits.
