To: Chris Matthews, John Reiss, Steve Capus, and Phil Griffin: I am writing about the following comment made by Chris Matthews on your network:
"Jeremiah Wright is popping up like a jack-in-the-box again tonight. I don't want to hear his explanations. I don't know if anybody wants them. There are NO explanations." Actually Mr. Matthews and the folks at MSNBC and NBC, the American people do want to hear them. And finally, last night, Bill Moyers from PBS conducted the interview with the Reverend Jeremiah Wright that should have been done a long time ago. Anyone who actually listens to the words of Rev. Wright and listens to the entirety of his sermons will know that he is not the racist, white-hating, evil-doer that the media has tried to portray. Fortunately, the American people are smarter than you give them credit for and they/we are aware that your brand of journalism has succumbed to tabloid journalism instead of reporting the truth. It is all about ratings and fear-mongering. The more sensationalistic you can "make" a story (and yes, YOU make it a sensationalistic fraud), the greater you think your ratings will be. However, the American people are tiring of this and are turning you off. I urge you to actually listen to the entire interview conducted by a true journalist, and then to listen to the entire sermons that you so gleefully "report" on with your 15 second sound-bites. If you need links, I can provide them. Until such time as the American people start to see unbiased, fair, and truthful reporting of the Democratic Party nomination, the majority of us will seek our information elsewhere. You owe the Rev. Wright, The Trinity United Church of Christ, and the American people a public apology. Oh, and don't forget Senator Obama in your apology. Sincerely,Kathleen Frischformer viewer
