CNN retracts Palin headline that said "violated no laws"
Edited on Fri Oct-10-08 08:09 PM by Avalon6

It now says "Palin abused power in firing, Alaska panel finds"

"However, it states that her efforts to get Wooten fired broke a state ethics law that bars public officials from pursuing personal interest through official action."

5. I suppose they operate on a bare bones budget so they can't afford to check their facts.

3. Gee... do you suppose they noticed that they were all alone in that assertion?
Did they assume that the rest of the outlets would pretty it up like that??
