Most of the broadcast outlets -- or atleast their affiliates in DC -- I noticed ABC and Fox -- as well as CNN of course -- carried Bush's speech but not the speeches before.
So although Bush had to endure Annan, the head of the General Assembly and Lula (who proposed an international conference on the Mideast) air some very mild criticism of US policy, the US public -- thanks to the networks (obvious exception of C-Span) -- were spared it.
As I recall, this is exactly what happened each time Powell addressed the UN in 2003.
