Shep just admitted they were manipulated:
The speech was designed for 43 minutes without applause so that there would be little time for analysis. It ran 32 minutes with applause so Shep says the WH put out a statement on a “specific and credible threat to the homeland” to take up the remaining time.
Though Obama always tries to manipulate and no doubt scheduled the timing to take up the most airtime, personally I think Shep’s a little too enamored with conspiracy theories.
