I've come up with some interesting facts, first Wright's sermon's are sold through Essence Magazine, as non-fiction, right above Assata Shakur's book.

Second, is this passage from a Frontpage Mag article, which is especially relevant today.

n the book titled When Black Men Stand up for God, a collection of sermons and reflections on the Million Man March, Wright identifies Kwanzaa founder Maulana Karenga as an attendee of the rally.[13] In the end notes that follow a transcript of one of Wright's sermons, Karenga is described as "an internationally acclaimed social activist and scholar in Pan African Studies"; "the founder and creator of Kwanzaa, the well-known African American holiday"; and "the director of Pan African Studies and Visiting Lecturer in Ethnic Studies at the University of California, Riverside."[14] Unmentioned is the fact that Karenga is a self-identified "African socialist" whose "Seven Principles of Blackness," which are observed during Kwanzaa, are not only the Marxist precepts of parity and proletariat unity, but are also identical to those of the 1970s domestic terrorist group, the Symbionese Liberation Army. Nor is it noted that in 1971 Karenga was convicted of torturing two women who were members of United Slaves, a black nationalist cult he had established.

That is interesting but not surprising. I still think the most interesting story is, how, ABC and Fox got the DVD"s. Fox and ABC knows exactly what Wright has said. But they are television news organization and they do not have the time to bring the words from transcripts to the public. To do this would take an hour of time presented in documentary form. The video requires little other than the video. I have to believe ABC and Fox requested EVERY DVD that was available. They are only available through the church. They only got a small sampling. Wright decided if and WHEN the news organizations got the DVD's. Fox and ABC know there is more hate in those DVD's because they HAVE READ the transcripts. At this point, Fox and ABC do not want to ineffectively and clumsily point to the transcripts when they have hopes for more video.
