What actually happened was that ABC, in a cunning piece of counterprogramming, dropped in the low-minded, critically impaled but attention-grabbing "The Bachelor" opposite President Bartlet's latest civics lesson. The effect: Young(ish) women between 18 and 49 suddenly found they had less interest in the state of the union and a lot more in the state of the bubbles in Aaron Buerge's hot tub.
What TV viewers see is a closed loop of familiar file footage: King battling desegregation in Birmingham (1963); reciting his dream of racial harmony at the rally in Washington (1963); marching for voting rights in Selma, Alabama (1965); and finally, lying dead on the motel balcony in Memphis (1968).
An alert viewer might notice that the chronology jumps from 1965 to 1968. Yet King didn't take a sabbatical near the end of his life. In fact, he was speaking and organizing as diligently as ever.
Almost all of those speeches were filmed or taped. But they're not shown today on TV.
Why?
It's because national news media have never come to terms with what Martin Luther King Jr. stood for during his final years.

"The right to choose is in grave danger from this president," said Senator Joseph I. Lieberman of Connecticut. "This administration has been undermining abortion rights from the day it took office."
Police swooped on the brothel community, on the outskirts of the capital Phnom Penh, a day before the start of a regional tourism conference.
Tokyo - Half of Japanese female junior and senior school students in a poll by the National Police Agency said it was their choice whether to have sex for money, said a report on Wednesday.
The Standing Committee of the National People's Congress began to read a draft civil code late last month, which for the first time writes in "private ownership" alongside State ownership and collective ownership.
One Chinese teacher of English told me that he and his colleagues advocate making English the official second language of China. By 2040, he hopes, China will be one of the largest English-speaking countries on Earth. Radio and television programs teach it to the public.
Yesterday I searched for blogs in .ru and found out that blogging is taking off in my own country, but more in the personal diary format rather than in k-logging format.[Playing sarcastic_haha.wav]
It's interesting to watch as new users of Linux, including reps from Merrill Lynch, Goldman Sachs, and VeriSign, are trotted out to explain how great Linux is to people who have probably spent the last decade elbow deep in kernel code.
"It's like watching a baby discover its toes," said New Jersey coder Nick Nardine. "Not only does the baby think its toes are the coolest thing in the world, it insists you must discover your toes too. Watching these guys push Linux on us is endearing and annoying at the same time."
Unlike MacWorld expos, where the crowd seems to see every single Mac booster as a welcome and beloved new convert, Linux coders are less seducible. They already know open source is a good thing, they only wonder why it took everyone else so long to figure it out.
And they have figured it out. Dell has a sizable booth at the show, as does IBM, HP and Sun. Even Microsoft's booth has quadrupled in size.
Teaching is one of the most rewarding and frustrating activities that one can engage in. It is exceedingly rewarding to be able to communicate knowledge, and especially understanding, to young minds. At the same time, logistical limitations and innumerable contingencies select for a high degree of patience among aspiring teachers. This presentation attempts to bring a rarely considered perspective to bear on the problem of teaching: namely, the amount of information we have recently accumulated about how the brain actually works and learns.
