More RWNJ revisionist history. Apparently, Barack Obama got an easy ride when he ran for POTUS, and the media ignored Jeremiah Wright:

[Link: mediamatters.org…]

From the original piece by Rex Murphy:

The media walked right past the decades-long association of Obama with the weird and racist pastor Jeremiah Wright. In the midst of the brief stormlet over the issue, one CNN host — inexplicably — decided that CNN was going to be a “Wright-free zone.” He could have hung out a sign: “No bad news about Obama here.”

Gee, who’s this Jeremiah Wright fellow? He sounds dangerous. You’d better tell me all about him, Rex.

What? That’s all you have to say about him in the whole article? Seems like you’ve decided the rest of this article is a “Wright-free zone”! Why are you covering up for Obama?!

Or maybe it’s that you know that everyone already knows all about him and you needn’t say more, thus negating your argument.
