Watched the usual talk shows. Nancy was on “Meet the Press” and did very well on the subject of drugs. Most of the shows dealt with the Daniloff matter and a number of the media & press involved launched a campaign that I had blinked & softened—giving in to Soviet demands. That’s a lot of crap & they dont know what they are talking about.

Than back to the W.H. where our quarters are all torn up with the T.V. crew readying for the broadcast. A rehearsal at 5 & on the air at 8. Everything went well and the broadcast was a success.
