Can A Brotha Get A Press Release On CNN?

Why is it that CNN has published headline articles about Hillary Clinton and John Edwards speaking out about the Jena 6 controversy, yet they have not done so for Barack Obama?

Obama was the first Presidential candidate to begin putting out press releases about this. Hillary Clinton came out a few days later. John Edwards just started talking about it today–now that it’s a big story in the news.

Yet the only headline Obama gets on CNN is one claiming Jesse Jackson is criticizing him for not speaking out about it.

Why are they just publishing Clinton’s and Edwards’ press releases and not Obama’s?

What the heck is going on here?????
