As Blender David Hart noted on his blog and a diary, if you were channel surfing to HBO's inaugural concert on the National Mall to catch openly gay Episcopal Bishop Gene Robinson's appearance at today's inaugural festivities at the Lincoln Memorial, you didn't see him.

Remember, this was the supposed salve on the wound to the LGBT community for the upcoming high-profile appearance of Rick Warren at the actual inauguration on Tuesday, which will be seen by millions and will float out there on YouTube in perpetuity. I had no illusions that Robinson's appearance would reach the same level of exposure as Warren's, but damn -- no broadcast of it at all? That's just freaking rich.
