News Report of November 5 Meeting Between Obama and Blago Disappears from Website -- Obama Truth Goons Called to Arms

These disappearing web reports are starting to become standard operating procedure under the Obama regime. From American Thinker:

The President-elect told the nation yesterday that he didn't meet with his governor over appointment of a successor. Later, top aide David Axelrod confessed that when he claimed otherwise, he misspoke.

But what about this report (update: the report has been removed*) from KHQA (studios located in Quincy, IL)? dated November 5th, revealing that the PE was meeting with the Gov to discuss his successor. Carol Sowers reported the day after the election that:
Now that Barack Obama will be moving to the White House, his seat in the U.S. Senate representing Illinois will have to be filled.

That's one of Obama's first priorities today.

He's meeting with Governor Rod Blagojevich this afternoon in Chicago to discuss it.
One presumes Ms. Sowers did not make this up. She must have been told by someone that the meeting was scheduled. It is of course possible that this website report is a hoax, but I don 't see any signs of that.

Perhaps the meeting was scheduled and then cancelled? If so, why? What information or other new development would cause the PEOTUS to diss his own Governor?
Luckily, you don't have to take the word of some conservative bloggers. Gateway Pundit has a screenshot of the Sowers article. Taken before the whitewashing:
