For those of you who haven’t gotten enough black liberation theology this election cycle, you might want to turn into Bill Moyers on Friday for an interview with Wright and check out Fox News on Monday for coverage of his speech at the National Press Club<\/a>. It should be interesting.<\/p>\n

The controversial Rev. Jeremiah Wright — Sen. Barack Obama’s pastor — is speaking Monday at the National Press Club as part of a divinity conference of black church leaders. Wright’s decision to headline an event at the Press Club — open to all media — risks giving Obama’s critics more fodder, as if they don’t have enough already.
\nMeanwhile, PBS is touting an interview with Wright to be broadcast Friday on “Bill Moyers’ Journal.” Fresh material from Wright — no matter how well-intended — is not what Obama needs.
\nWright’s Press Club talk is supposed to be about offering perspective on black churches — theology, history and politics, and the torrent of coverage stemming from Obama’s presidential bid.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
