COMMENTS: Return to the West Wing
NBC closed its newscast with an extended promotion for its primetime documentary Inside the Obama White House. Anchor Brian Williams, a one-time White House correspondent, boasted that the East Room was "an extraordinary backdrop for a newscast" and that his network had deployed 32 camera crews to document "the inner workings of the West Wing." Andrea Mitchell, another of NBC's former White House correspondents, pitched in with coverage of Nancy Reagan's return to her former home to honor her late husband. "Poignant," Mitchell called it, even as she reminded us "earlier awkwardness" when Barack Obama publicly teased the former First Lady about her astrological seances.
