USA: 15,000 news media representatives at the Republican convention

Posted by Bertrand Pecquerie on July 20, 2004 at 4:55 PM

According to New York Times, "There will be roughly 15,000 news media representatives in New York - more than three times the number of delegates - at the Republican convention... The press center at the convention, which is scheduled to take place Aug. 30 to Sept. 2, is being set up in the general post office in Midtown, an imposing fortress of a building that sprawls across two city blocks. The center has been connected to the convention site at Madison Square Garden by a $1 million temporary covered bridge over Eighth Avenue. Organizers are already comparing the complex to the Olympic village for the athletes competing in Athens this summer.
