New Pajamas Media Column (’What Did Obama Know about Wright and When Did He Know It?’) Is Up
It’s here, with this overview:
Barack Obama has denied hearing hateful rhetoric from his pastor of 20 years. An ongoing PJM investigation finds that there is much evidence indicating that the junior senator from Illinois is not being entirely truthful.
It runs down the story of Jeremiah Wright, the Trinity United Church of Christ, and the 20-year Wright-TUCC-Obama relationship, from the March 13 ABC story that first brought it to national attention up to, but NOT including, the Rev. Wright’s current “press offensive.”
The “press offensive” became visible just recently, but it seems to have been planned for some time.
Its first element is a Bill Moyers Journal interview of Wright that will air on PBS sometime today or tonight; a transcript and video will probably be posted somewhere at some point. PBS’s tease for the interview is here.
Other elements of Wright’s “press offensive” that I know of include an NAACP-Detroit speech on Sunday, and another speech on Monday at the National Press Club.
Contrary to ordinary custom, because it is part of PJM’s ongoing investigation, I will NOT be posting the column at BizzyBlog.
