Snow Job

Oh, yay! White House briefings will be so much more interesting now.

Tony Snow will be named new White House press secretary on Wednesday morning, FOX News has learned. Snow is expected to be at the White House for the announcement. He has been mulling the offer for the last several days.

Long before the announcement, oddsmakers were banking on Snow, host of FOX News Talk's "The Tony Snow Show," to be tapped for the highly visible White House post. "I expect to see him at the podium in just a few days, in the press room at the White House," Fred Barnes, editor of The Weekly Standard and a FOX News contributor, said Tuesday.

The talk radio host was given a clean bill of health by his oncologist Tuesday, following a CAT scan and other tests that were undertaken last Thursday. Sources said Snow was President Bush's first choice, but he needed the all-clear from his doctors before he takes the job. Snow is recovering from colon cancer.


I can TiVo press briefings, right? Tef TiVo's anything starring Condoleeza Rice. Tony's fair game, I think.

I really like Tony Snow. He'll do a great job and he knows how to deal with reporters' questions. I was just surprised that he took the job ... it's bound to mean a pay cut for him since he wouldn't be able to do his TV or radio shows.

I read on another blog that he's Catholic too.

I know! He's almost completely unflappable. There are few people who could do this job as well.

And he's easy on the eyes. ;-)
