For the second time in his young administration, President Obama will be conducting a prime-time televised new conference. Barack Obama will be addressing the news media at a time of much activity. His Treasury Secretary, Timothy Geithner, just unveiled a new rescue program for the toxic assets crippling U.S. banks. The Geithner plan was widely cheered by Wall Street.

It is expected that most question Barack Obama will be responding to will involve the economic crisis. President Obama has sought to convey a highly active and visible image in responding to America’s financial and economic difficulties. Recently, President Barack Obama was interviewed on the CBS news show 60 Minutes.

Barack Obama will probably maintain his high visibility as the Global Economic Crisis dominates the world’s attention. Obama will soon be joining other world leaders to discuss the economic crisis at the G20 summit in London.
