WorldNetDaily complaining about Wikipedia's treatment of Obama
WorldNetDaily is renowned for its fair and balanced journalism. :rofl:

An in-depth report by the online publication WorldNetDaily.com alleged that any negativity surrounding Mr Obama has been deliberately deleted by the online encyclopedia.

4. Somewhere out there is a story about the guy that wrote the WND story
Edited on Wed Mar-11-09 06:16 PM by Gman
and how the same screen name that changed the Obama page also changed the Wikipedia page about the author of the WND story leading to the the highly likely conclusion that the WND author vandalized the Obama page, got caught, got banned and then wrote a story about it.
