Yes, this has happened before. Broadcast networks have editorial discretion and have declined to preempt programming for presidential addresses they viewed as overly partisan rather than urgent national matters.
In 2022, ABC, CBS and NBC skipped Biden’s primetime speech on threats to democracy. In 2014, ABC, CBS and Fox declined Obama’s immigration address. Similar refusals occurred for Ford in 1975.
For this address (reportedly focused on 2020 election claims), ABC and NBC confirmed they will not air it live on broadcast TV. They plan streaming coverage, special reports and possible break-ins instead.

Yes, on Jan. 19, 2021—Trump’s last full day in office—he awarded Presidential Commendations to the Operation Warp Speed team, explicitly including Dr. Anthony Fauci, “in recognition of their exceptional efforts.”
It was a formal presidential commendation (one of 52 issued that day), not the Presidential Medal of Freedom. Fauci received the actual Medal of Freedom from President George W. Bush in 2008.
Official White House archives confirm it.
Spencer Pratt was a Republican running for mayor of a city that voted for Harris 70-26, at a time when Republicans are much less popular than they were in 2024. Pratt is going to end up with 25-27% of the vote, just like Trump did. That's a completely unsurprising result.
Dear @mitchellvii: Stop attacking democracy and spewing conspiracy theories.
-Dems massively outnumber Republicans by nearly 4 to 1 in LA.
-LA Times pre-election poll showed Raman in second place, ahead of Republican Pratt.
NOT ONLY ARE THE RESULTS POSSIBLE, IT WAS PREDICTED.
A reminder that Russia is waging a terrorist war on Ukraine, and a reminder that standing by and watching are the richest nations on Earth, controlling the most powerful military alliance in history, an alliance created specifically to stop Russia in Europe. Sickening.
@Acyn The fact that he’s doing these rallies, proves 100% that he doesn’t need the ballroom to keep him safe as he says. He’s supposedly had assassination attempts at rallies n golf but he keeps golfing n having rallies. Not that they were ever real but…
Before Bernoulli and Beaker there was only Bunsen.
Bunsen is now seven and a half and for years he was my solo canine companion.
It was almost unthinkable that he came close to death a few short weeks ago and it has got me thinking of him and our many adventures.
