For more info: http://www.pbs.org/moyers/journal/042... Bill Moyers interviews the Reverend Jeremiah Wright in his first broadcast interview with a journalist since he became embroiled in a controversy for his remarks and his relationship with Barack Obama. Wright, who retired in early 2008 as pastor of Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago, where Senator Obama is a member, has been at the center of controversy for comments he made during sermons, which surfaced in the press in March. Watch BILL MOYERS JOURNAL on your local PBS station (check local listings.)

3. Do you presume to know everything there is to know about him only from corporate media soundbites?

Think deeper. He's a black preacher in a black church. They have a very different style of preaching. A few snipets taken out of context. Not that I necessarily approve of every sentiment in them, but this matter requires deeper thought and understanding. I have watched longer clips of his sermons where he preaches love, peace, etc. Is this former Marine and multiple award winner who was invited to the Clinton White House all bad? Has 40 years of preaching been all bad? Bill Clinton cheated on his wife multiple times. He received oral sex multiple times from a White House intern maybe half his age in a bathroom just down from the Oval Office. He has had a serious personal "issue." But does that problem make him ENTIRELY a bad person?? Are you prepared to condemn President Clinton? Does that personal problem and those actions define the ENTIRE person and his ENTIRE life's work? Are you a perfect human being yourself? Ever have a friend or relative who made some poor choices, has some disagreeable views or qualities, yet you still love him or her? Think MUCH deeper.

8. C'mon. Who cares about thinking and watching/listening to the Reverend himself.

BOHICA06 will tell you all you need to know about him.

4. Juan Williams is a shrill, talentless hack compared to Moyers

Moyers doesn't sensationalize for ratings, he cultivates mature adult conversations instead.

7. Juan Williams is not Shrill,, and he just became a talentless hack,

when he went to Fox news, before with PBS he was a "Colin Powell" before Colin testified before the U.N. the Neocons will drag you in ,, then never let you go.

9. Juan "Yowzamassa" Williams and Mara Lyinsombitch are BOTH whoring for Murdoch...

under the guise of "NPR analysts"
