This press conference does seem very well thought out.  Consider:

Jessie Helms and the neo-Nazi coalition want to buy out CBS to "become
Dan Rather's boss"

CBS are televising the NCAA Tourney.

If CBS televise the NCAA Tourney, they are probably going to win the ratings
"war", which will allow them to charge more for commercials, earn them
more money, and make them more profitable.

A profitable company is more desired than an unprofitable company,
therefore the cost of stock in that company costs more.

This logic says that Presidant Reagan chose to hold his press conference to-day
so that CBS would be the most hurt financially, forcing their price down,
and makeing the conservative take over easier.
