Obama Campaigned Secured PR Help To Whitewash Rev. Wright And His Church
One of Barack Obama’s senior advisers helped arrange public relations help for Trinity United Church as it grappled with tough coverage in the wake of the Jeremiah Wright controversy, according to a new report.
Talking Points Memo reports that David Axelrod, Obama’s chief strategist, privately contacted Jim Terman, president of Chicago public relations firm Jasculca-Terman and Associates, after the church put out a call for help after Wright’s remarks attracted a media firestorm. The firm specializes in crisis management.
Just for the record: Obama is more than happy to help his church whitewash its hateful ideology, but we’re expected to believe that he doesn’t buy into any of that ideology.
