http://www.nytimes.com/2016/05/05/business/media/nbc-relocates-nightly-news-to-trump-tower.html?_r=0snip:
In an unusual move on Wednesday, NBC relocated its flagship Nightly News broadcast six blocks north to Trump Tower, where Lester Holt conducted a live interview with Mr. Trump in his 26th-floor executive office.
Mr. Holt anchored the rest of the broadcast from the buildings gold-and-marble lobby a signature Trump tableau introducing segments about a Canadian wildfire and defective airbags as tourists milled behind him.
NBC plans to extend the same offer of broadcasting Nightly News from the home or headquarters of the eventual Democratic nominee, a network spokesman said Wednesday night.
News anchors frequently interview presidential candidates in their homes or campaign offices. Earlier Wednesday, Wolf Blitzer taped a conversation with Mr. Trump in the downstairs bar of the Trump Tower atrium, which was broadcast later in the day on CNN.
But few in the industry could recount another instance where an evening newscast considered the symbol of a network news brand shifted its entire broadcast to a candidates home turf.
I figure the other networks will be relocating to tRump Tower sometime soon.

to come up with something to get her word out.

The post was about the media fawning over Trump. Ya think they'll be fawning over Hil to the same extent? Hil will need a strategy to deal with it. Yes?
