Dallas CBS Affiliate Buries Negative Jeremiah Wright News

Twelve hours ago CBS 11, Dallas, Texas published an article:
Obama’s Former Pastor Calls TCU A Godless College.” If you click on the link, however, you will find that the page has suddenly been removed.

It would appear that although most of the national news media and pundits both left and right have labeled Wright’s latest comments as egocentric and harmful to Obama, CBS 11 Dallas has chosen sides and Wright has won this battle. This is not a good omen for Obama!

This is the Google News Alert I received this morning:

Obama’s Former Pastor Calls TCU A Godless CollegeCBS 11 - Dallas,TX,USA”He’s upset that Brite Divinity School and TCU didn’t support everything that he said,” said TCU sophomore Tory McGee. “It’s a decision that TCU made and it …See all stories on this topic

Because CBS 11 Dallas is at the home of much of the controversy, we are left to surmise what Wright actually said about TCU. Here’s an excerpt from my March 19th post, Brite Divinity School to Honor Rev. Jeremiah Wright

“TCU Chancellor Victor J. Boschini Jr. said Monday that “TCU supports the right of free speech even when the opinions expressed are controversial. That is what a university is about. But giving an award is another matter, and in this specific case in light of Reverend Wright’s recently discovered remarks, TCU would not give such an award . . .”

Would you like to read what Jeremiah Wright actually said about TCU??? Write to CBS 11 and demand that they replace the article that they removed.

Why does the idea of threats come to mind?

    I seriously doubt that threats of any kind played into this, CBS 11 is a very left leaning affiliate of a very left leaning network, just more MSM dishonestly and scumbag reporting, or, rather, taking the side OF the scumbags…

    That’s CBS…

    Makes ya kind of wonder why it was put up in the first place….perhaps someone made a flagrant act of journalism before he/she got shot down?

    You can still get a copy of the old CBS11 article in Google cache.
    Do a google search on “TCU Godless Wright” and then click on the word ‘cache’ underneath the first article. When I requested it the following link was returned.

    http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&ct=clnk&cd=1&url=http%3A%2F%2F64.233.169.104%2Fsearch%3Fq%3Dcache%3Ax5CRofY5pe4J%3Acbs11tv.com%2Flocal%2Frev.Jeremiah.Wright.2.710837.html%2BTCU%2BGodless%2BWright%26hl%3Den%26ct%3Dclnk%26cd%3D1%26gl%3Dus%26lr%3Dlang_en%26client%3Dfirefox-a&ei=MNUXSO3NL4fCeaGu0fAK&usg=AFQjCNGPW_7LtPFRLgxtZkhT1v2bQnf2Jg&sig2=JqsF5q4icfSsS0d8X0YsAQ

    I don’t know how long the link will remain available.

    Nuts! All I get is one of those nasty messages….

    The page isn’t redirecting properly

    Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete.
