Reagan to Meet With Press Today
President Reagan today will conduct his first press conference since March 19, and only the second formal White House news conference this year.
The three major television networks and Cable News Network all plan live coverage of the press conference, which begins at 5 p.m. (PDT).
Spokesmen for ABC, CBS, NBC and CNN said they would carry the news conference in its entirety.
ABC’s coverage of the fifth game of baseball’s World Series between the St. Louis Cardinals and the Minnesota Twins was scheduled to begin at 5 p.m. (PDT) with the game starting at 5:25 p.m.
However, the office of the baseball commissioner decided to delay Game 5 until the end of the news conference. The game will be televised from St. Louis.
