NEW YORK, Apr. 21 /PRNewswire/ --

NEW YORK, April 21 /PRNewswire/ -- The Reverend Jeremiah Wright will be interviewed on PBS this week by Bill Moyers in his first broadcast interview with a journalist since he became embroiled in a controversy for his remarks and his relationship with Barack Obama.

Wright, who retired in early 2008 as pastor of Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago, where Senator Obama is a member, has been at the center of controversy for comments he made during sermons, which surfaced in the press in March.


The interview with Bill Moyers will air on Bill Moyers Journal on Friday, April 25 at 9 p.m. on PBS (check local listings at www.pbs.org/moyers).

PBS's critically acclaimed public affairs series Bill Moyers Journal stays on -- and often ahead of -- the news cycle with analysis, interviews, and reports every week.
