NYT: President Obama will hold his first formal White House press conference on Monday, his spokesman announced, in a prime-time appearance that is designed to help explain his economic recovery plan to the nation.
Mr. Obama also will address a joint session of Congress on Feb. 24, aides said Thursday, which will essentially take on the flavor of a State of the Union address. The speech comes after he presents his budget to Congress for the next fiscal year.

Obama on Our TVs Feb. 9
Obama needs to explain OVERSIGHT. That's my big beef with the stimulus. I don't mind them spending a bunch of money to create jobs, but if Las Vegas is going to spend it on neon, then the stimulus could be a disaster. Obama will be on at 8 p.m. eastern.
