Friday is known as "Trash Day". If an administration wants to get out embarrassing information it is done on Friday after the news deadlines for Friday so that it gets reported in the Saturday papers. Saturday papers are the least read papers of any day of the week. There must be something really bad in the records. W is hoping nobody reads them.

It's probably going to take a few days for any flaws and contridictions to surface. So, any "Bad" news will hit next week.

I would have done it on a Saturday night. That way they would get a slow news day ... AND ... they wouldn't have much time to dig through all the info before the Sunday morning politico shows.
They will now have time to pick through the records in time for "Meet the Press".
