While the President’s Away, Boys Will Play

Henry J. Pulizzi reports on the White House. While a spokesman for President Bush briefed reporters in Crawford, Texas, on the clash between Russia and Georgia as well as the resignation of Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf , another sort of briefing was taking place at the White House. To the delight of unsuspecting preteen tourists, boy band heart throbs the Jonas Brothers hijacked the podium where President George W. Bush faces the press for a brief photo shoot and took questions in the White House driveway. The boys, in town for a concert Monday night, were apparently filming a public-service announcement on the National Park System. (link)
