Bernie Goldberg: I Wish NYT Was Concerned With Religion and Politics When Obama Was in Wright’s Church
As NewsBusters reported last week, New York Times outgoing executive editor Bill Keller believes presidential candidates should be questioned about their religious beliefs. On Monday's “The O'Reilly Factor,” media critic Bernie Goldberg marvelously said, “I wish that he and the New York Times was as concerned about religion and politics during the last campaign when it pertained to Barack Obama, who sat in a church with a hateful minister for 20 years” (video follows with transcript and commentary): Bill Keller, I wish that he and the New York Times was as concerned about religion and politics during the last campaign when it pertained to Barack Obama, who sat in a church with a hateful minister for 20 years. So I'm not sure if Bill Keller is the right person to preach to us about the importance of journalists asking about religion.
