Media Conspiracy Time!

The AP reports the following:

Bush was also using the formal question-and-answer session with reporters - his first in the evening in over a year - to talk about skyrocketing gas prices. The White House asked television networks to broadcast the news conference, scheduled for 8:30 p.m. EDT in the East Room of the White House.

Th press conference was instead scheduled for 8:01 pm EST. Did the AP get the time wrong?

Or did they say that so that no one would see him speak . . . until he's being grilled by reporters.
