C-SPAN's FOUR DAY COVERAGE OF
THE 56TH PRESIDENTIAL INAUGURATION
Coverage of the Inauguration will be available on C-SPAN and can be streamed online
at www.c-span.org.
SATURDAY, JANUARY 17th:
LIVE on C-SPAN coverage of President-elect Obama as he makes his way to Washington
by train, including rallies in Philadelphia, Wilmington, Delaware, and Baltimore,
Maryland
Blair House: The President's Guest House, 7:00 pm ET
Following tradition, Barack Obama and his family will spend several days at Blair
House prior to his inauguration on January 20th. In conjunction with that visit,
C-SPAN will present a program, "Blair House: The President's Guest House,"
looking at this rarely-seen historic home which is not open to the public.
In addition to its role as a temporary home for presidents-elect, Blair House has
been the "President's Guest House" since the early 1940s, housing foreign heads of
state on official visits. Winston Churchill, Queen Elizabeth, Charles de Gaulle,
Hamad Karzai, Francois Mitterand, Vaclav Havel, and Boris Yeltsin have all stayed
there. It is also the place where presidential widows Nancy Reagan and Betty Ford
stayed during their husbands' funerals.
C-SPAN's program, produced with the cooperation of the US State Department which
oversees Blair House, will tell the story of the house and some of its famous
inhabitants and show viewers its rarely-seen rooms.
