Inside the Obama whitehouse? Wow! Fun fun fun! ,,,, I don't know if I'd want to have watched Inside the Clinton or Bush whitehoues if one existed. Mind you, I don't want to watch this either so perhaps that's why they were never made.
From the NBC press release:
"For more than forty years, NBC News has made it a tradition to offer viewers a unique vantage point into a new president's White House with a day-in-the-life program. This seventh installment will be taped on Friday, May 29. On Tuesday, the eve of President Obama's trip to the Middle East and Europe, Williams will tape a one-on-one interview with the President that will air as part of the broadcast. "Inside the Obama White House" will be shot and broadcast in high definition
"This is one of the greatest traditions in all of broadcast television," said Williams. "We will show aspects of life in the White House -- the Obama White House -- that no one on the outside has ever seen before." "
"For more than forty years, NBC News has made it a tradition to offer viewers a unique vantage point into a new president's White House with a day-in-the-life program"
Really? I've never seen it before ever. I searched youtube/hulu/google for "day in the life" and "nbc" and noting came up. I tried several search variations like nbc clinton daily life etc. Odd. I guess there are some things youtube, google and hulu don't have?
A very quick Google search turned up "Inside the Clinton White House" aka "A Day at the White House" from May 1993 -- http://in.truveo.com/inside-the-clinton-white-house/id/36028839787148529
On the page are links to "Inside the Nixon White House Dec. 21, 1971: A day in the presidency of Richard Nixon.", "Inside the Reagan White House Feb. 13, 1981: A day with president Reagan.", "Inside the Carter White House April 14, 1977: A day with President Carter.", "Inside the H.W. Bush White House Feb. 28, 1990: A day at the White House with President George H.W. Bush." and even "President Truman tours the White House May 3, 1952: President Harry Truman shows NBC cameras around the White House." and "Mrs. Kennedy gives a tour of the White House
Feb. 14, 1962: A tour of the White House with Mrs. John F. Kennedy."
