the reason lapierre didn't answer any questions at the press conference today...???

NBC news has been advertising an 'exclusive interview' with mr. lapierre as a guest on Meet the Press.

perhaps NBC has paid mr lapierre for his visit and they have a contract not to speak to any other news outlets pre interview.

his spokesperson said they will take questions on monday.

I mean, how could he not?

Can the NRA Board of Directors vote him out? I mean, I realize they probably won't, but legally, could they?
