New Jeremiah Wright video emerges: UPDATED

Here is some more extremism from the Reverend Wrong, courtesty of Accuracy in Media.

A new video of Jeremiah Wright has surfaced, showing Barack Obama's pastor of 20 years praising Marxism and discussing his ties to communists in El Salvador and Nicaragua and the Libyan government. Equally important, Wright is being introduced in the video by Robert W. McChesney, co-founder of Free Press, an organization which has come under scrutiny for its links to the Obama Administration and dedication to the transformation and control of the private media in the U.S.

In an article in the socialist Monthly Review, "Journalism, Democracy, and Class Struggle," McChesney declared, "Our job is to make media reform part of our broader struggle for democracy, social justice, and, dare we say it, socialism."

In the video, which captures Wright's appearance at a September 17, 2009, anniversary celebration of Monthly Review, Wright said that while the "corporate media" provide a "binary lens" of the world, in such terms as "communist versus Christian," Monthly Review offers what it calls "no-nonsense Marxism."

A year ago, the Obama campaign assured us that Wright wasn't a big deal. But when considering the sharp leftward lunge the White House has taken, they lied to us. Again.

For twenty years, Obama sat in the pews of Wright's Trinity United Church.

UPDATE 11:15am CST: The Wright video has been removed from Vimeo. Which is wrong.

UPDATE 12:30pm CST: Ed Driscoll just tweeted me, there is a three minute clip online.
