It was more people who watched President Biden's first live press conference, which took place during Thursday evening, than this year's Oscars gala. This is written by The New York Times.
Recently, Biden's health and suitability for another presidential term have been questioned, and Thursday's press conference was the first live one since the notable TV debate against ex-President and candidate Donald Trump.
More than 23 million people watched, and apart from sports events, the press conference is thus one of the year's most watched TV broadcasts.
