The Republican convention will receive scaled back national air time with ABC's one hour telecast at 9 p.m. Iowa time and NBC delaying coverage until Wednesday. Laura Bush and Colin Powell are slated to speak while Jim Lehrer anchors PBS NewsHour trio of hours. CBS airs 48 Hours live from Philadelphia at 9, and C-SPAN offers complete gavel-to-gavel coverage starting at 10 a.m.
