Soledad Flying Solo

I watched the CNN coverage of Rev. Jeremiah Wright on Sunday night and was impressed with both Roland Martin's and Soledad O'Brien's role as correspondents for the event. She seemed quite impressed with Wright's "performance" and I was wondering what would happen the morning after with other media observers would say. Sadly, not a one that I saw had any words of praise so Soledad stood alone.

As a whole new collection of Rev. Jeremiah Wright clips are played throughout the day today, and most likely throughout the weeks ahead, commentators and journalists will weigh in once again. Wright gave a speech last night at an NAACP dinner in Detroit and this morning at the National Press Club.

CNN's Soledad O'Brien attended the NAACP dinner (she was a guest announcer as well), and discussed the reaction to the speech on CNN's American Morning.

Her take? "It was an illuminating speech. It was a really funny, not angry, interesting, dynamic speech. So, certainly a home run for him from that perspective," she said.
