1984 Obama



The Official Gazette of Illinois published this article and photo on 12 November 2008 when the story promoted the idea that Obama was concerned about his constituents. The article said:

After congratulating President-elect Barack Obama on his Nov. 4 victory, Governor Rod Blagojevich now begins the difficult task of finding a replacement for Illinois’ Senate seat.


And the caption under the photo reads:


Governor Blagojevich confers with now President-elect Barack Obama.


The story has been scrubbed.




As reported earlier, a second KHQA story, originally published on 8 November, has also been scrubbed. That KHQA post confirmed that the 5 November meeting between Obama and Blagojevich took place.
