SUMMARY: After reporting that, at the Democratic presidential debate, Sen. Barack Obama "was asked whether he would reject the support of Louis Farrakhan," The New York Times' Patrick Healy and Jeff Zeleny purported to convey Obama's response, but left out Obama's repeated denunciation of Farrakhan's comments, writing only: " 'I obviously can't censor him,' Mr. Obama said. 'It is not support that I sought.' "
