- Did anyone notice that the text of the Inaugural poem as carried
- over the wire services (I posted the wire service version earlier today)
- omitted the reference to Gays?
-
- Can any of the more literary enlighten us on this?
- Are the wire services homophobic?
- Dis Angelou ad-lib the Gay reference at the last minute?
- Is the Gay reference part of the "original" written text of the
- poem?
-
- While I am anxious to find out what happened, please post
- responses here, as I have no time to respond individually. Thanks.
