Update (10:00 EDT, Oct. 20): CNBC has an update/correction on the story:
<<Update: On Wednesday evening, a Department of Energy spokesman said that the press releases had been returned to their original content as a result of CNBC's inquiry about the changes.
Correction: A previous headline on this article incorrectly characterized the press releases as being related to Solyndra.>>
Is the Obama administration literally rewriting history when it comes to the Solyndra scandal Energy Department's solar energy loan programs?
"Someone affiliated with the Department of Energy has been going back to make changes to press releases posted on the Internet weeks and months ago," Eamon Javers of CNBC reported this afternoon.
