Found the problem
For those of you who have been reading this saga, I want to report that I found the short. I had to make my own schematic using extra wire and a continuity meter. The short it turns out was in the wire that runs from the bedroom desk outlet to the outlet behind the living room TV. with both ends disconnected, it read short. Since I have no idea where this wire is routed and Thor couldn't help, I connect the TV outlet to the outlet under the kitchen cabinet that is actually in the GFCI circuit. Had to route a small piece of wire from their to the other TV outlet, but the holes were already there.
Capped off both ends of the original wire and taped. Now at least we have TV in the living room.
