Just checked the "big-3" web sites
msnbc, faux and cnn Nothing on their homepage about the excommunications.
I'll bet money if it was some Church that kicked out scrub supporters it'd be the lead story.

3. The memo news was in my paper - front page, above the fold
I get the Charlotte Observer. I was shocked to see it there.

14. Yes, could the sheep be woken up this late in the game?
Will they do more than bleat?

This whole story sickens me.

15. If it actually hits the teevee
and doesn't get spun to death. We can only hope. I've been passing a printed copy around my office, and people are absolutely stunned.

4. CNN is supposed to be doing a bit on it
That's what someone posted. Supposed to be in the next hour which (I think) is 1pm CST.

16. There are two hits now, Winston-Salem Journal and
People For the American Way


I've just learned that you have to be careful when using quotation marks with Google. I got zero hits once on something huge. Removed the quotes and bingo..

Without quotes:

http://news.google.com/news?hl=en&lr=&tab=wn&ie=UTF-8&q=East+Waynesville+Baptist+Church&btnG=Search+News

Four hits, only one carries over (People For the American Way).

There's also a human interest story: "Fire destroys Crocker minister's home"
