I'm waiting to hear back from ABC, CBS, NBC, and Fox broadcast about whether they will carry Trump's prime time address tomorrow night. The networks don't automatically say yes when a president asks for airtime.
This just in from a network source: "Time has been requested tomorrow night for 9p. Networks are deliberating."
TV exec texts: "He calls us fake news all the time, but needs access to airwaves… If we give him the time, he'll deliver a fact-free screed without rebuttal. And if we don't give him the time, he'll call every network partisan. So we are damned if we do and damned if we don't."

CNN correspondent @JeffZeleny and producer @betsy_klein are here. A loud "CNN SUCKS" chant broke out when reporters lined up for their 5pm live shots. Then a man walked over to me and said, "nothing personal."
