Wright were pilloried with sound bites before the rather thoughtful interview was done. The man is soft of voice, even in temperament, and reasonable. I cannot for the life of me understand why the media destroyed him before it heard what he had to say. It's a dirty shame that happened to him and it occurs to others. When the evil Sean Hannity lets loose on someone, they may be a modern day saint but when he finishes with them he has rendered them useless and hated by all. I regret Obama and Rev.

You have stated my reactions exactly. It is truly sad that after viewing the Moyers interview and googling on "editorial Jeremiah Wright" yours was the first reference I found to this important broadcast--nothing from any of the large, mainstream print media. If the interview had been damning in any way, they'd have been all over the story. Instead, because Dr. Wright presents himself as an intelligent, intellectual even, scholar with a complete philosophy, not as a raving lunatic, we hear nothing. Thank you.

Obama had nothing to apologize for as this is a thoughtful, caring, insightful man who has been unfairly judged and castigated. Is there any way the mainstream media will play this entire interview.

I gained a newfound respect for Jeremiah Wright. This is an interview that should have been done a long time ago. The entire interview (about 50 minutes long) is well worth watching.
