Hannity again selectively excerpted interview with Obama's pastor to
claim church has "black-separatist agenda"
http://mediamatters.org/items/200706260011

Summary: On Hannity & Colmes, Sean Hannity claimed that the pastor of
Sen. Barack Obama's church, Rev. Jeremiah A. Wright, "has a very black-
separatist point of view." Hannity played a video clip of an interview
with Wright from the March 1 Hannity & Colmes, but did not play the
portion in which Wright specifically stated that his church's point of
view does not "assume superiority, nor does it assume separatism."

On the June 25 edition of Fox News' Hannity & Colmes, discussing Sen.
Barack Obama's (D-IL) June 23 speech on religion in politics, co-host
Sean Hannity claimed that the head of Obama's church, Rev. Jeremiah A.
Wright, "has a very black-separatist point of view." Hannity then
played a video clip of his and co-host Alan Colmes' conversation with
Wright on the March 1 edition of Hannity & Colmes and further asserted
that the church, Trinity United Church of Christ, is "all about the
black community. ... [I]t's a black-separatist agenda." However,
Hannity did not play the portion of the March 1 interview in which
Wright specifically stated that his church's point of view does not
"assume superiority, nor does it assume separatism."
