President Obama is not going quietly into his post-presidency. For the moment, though, he is staying in the media spotlight with speeches, interviews and a news conference that is planned for Wednesday. And Obama has used the flurry of appearances to stake out a legacy imperiled by the surprising victory of President-elect Donald Trump. Even when he leaves office and stops giving interviews, Obama will not be completely absent from the media spotlight. Both Vice News and the History Channel have conducted interviews with Obama for documentaries that will air after Trump’s inauguration.
