President Barack Obama spent an informative hour on Thursday fielding questions from a group of young people. ‘A Conversation with President Obama’ was a highly-publicized event that stretched across several platforms of media.
The live town hall-style discussion was held at the headquarters of BET Networks in Washington, D.C. Television viewers were able to see the event across a range of Viacom media properties, including BET, CMT, MTV, Centric, and others.
