Labrador To ‘Meet The Press’ Already

Just four days after being sworn in, Idaho's 1st District GOP Rep. Raúl Labrador will appear on the signature Sunday talk show, "Meet the Press with David Gregory." Labrador's office announced the booking late Thursday in a news release. By Friday morning, the Meet the Press website showed Labrador on Sunday's guest list. On the air since Postmaster General James Farley was the first guest in November 1947, Meet the Press is the longest-running show in U.S. TV history/Dan Popkey, Idaho Statesman. More here.

Question: Why do you think "Meet the Press" wants to meet a freshman representative from Idaho's 1st Congressional District?
