President Obama will appear on a record five TV networks on Sunday -- the morning talk shows of ABC, NBC, CBS and sit for interviews with CNN and Spanish-language network Univision.
Since becoming president, Obama will have done 124 print, broadcast and radio interviews, according to a tally by Maryland's Towson University -- three times more than George W. Bush did by the same point in his presidency.
White House spokesman Robert Gibbs says the interviews are "an attempt by the president to speak to as many different people as he can on an issue that's as important as something like health care reform or on Afghanistan."
But is Obama risking overexposure? Republican strategist Kevin Madden said the amount of media face time for Obama is beginning "to wear on a lot of people.''
"Now we have what I would call the 'Obama omnipresence.' You almost can't escape this president," Madden told ABC News.
