Nixon's Presidential Library is a Bookmobile (S01E03)
S01E03
Feeling pressured by dwindling ratings, Dan Rather seeks to revamp the evening news. Meanwhile, Mikhail Gorbachev visits D.C. Follies ahead of an upcoming summit. In a surprising twist, it's revealed that Nixon's presidential library operates as a bookmobile. Fred enjoys a brief moment of fame when Robin Leach arrives in search of a guest for "Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous," but his chance is overshadowed by Princess Di's presence. To top it off, Reagan causes a stir when he mistakenly believes a radio airing of "War of the Worlds" is an actual crisis.
