Call The WAAAAAAAAmbulance! Sarah Palin Thinks The "Liberal Press" Is Mean!

[meegbear]

Professional right wing angry person John Ziegler (remember his potty-mouthed but fact-light challenge of 538.com's Nate Silver?) is busy as a beaver, creating the "documentary" Media Malpractice... How Obama Got Elected about how that "librul media" (*sigh* Can that phrase be retired yet?) failed to do their job and resulted in Barack Obama's election. Yeah, that liberal Fox News and Rush Limbaugh...I'm sure it had nothing to do with the epic failure of the Republican Party.

But who better to get on camera and grouse about the mean ol' media than Sarah Palin?

A new video interview with the governor, who talks at some length about media coverage during and after the campaign. The interview is by conservative broadcaster John Ziegler, who is producing a documentary, "Media Malpractice ... How Obama Got Elected." It was done at her Wasilla home on Monday, and posted clips on YouTube yesterday.

A big chunk of the YouTube clip is Palin teeing off on media coverage of her family. She talks about a double standard between coverage of her family and Obama's, and suggests a double standard between scrutiny of her and Caroline Kennedy (who's pursuing a New York Senate seat) because of her social class. "When I heard Barack Obama state in one of his interviews on national television that his wife was off limits, meaning, family's off limits -- you know, 'Attack me, I'm the public official, come after me, I can handle it and we'll duke it out if need be, but family's off limits' -- I naively believed, OK, they respected that in him and his demand for that to be adhered, naively believing that must apply to all of us, right? But it didn't apply."

On Kennedy: "I’ve been interested also to see how Caroline Kennedy will be handled and if she will be handled with kid gloves or if she will be under such a microscope also. It’s going to be interesting to see how that plays out and I think that as we watch that we will perhaps be able to prove that there is a class issue here also that was such a factor in the scrutiny of my candidacy versus, say, the scrutiny of what her candidacy may be."

Oh yeah, the media has been so kind to Caroline Kennedy. And don't get me started on that "Shriekin' Evil" Keith Olbermann. The ridiculous lengths Republicans will go to retain their victim status.

1. Palin is such a provincial idiot.

She even said she thought the press has been
going easier on Caroline Kennedy because of
Kennedy's social class.

WTF again!! Social class?

Ever look at yourself on TV, Sarah, and notice
how stupid, narrowminded, hateful, and idiotic
you look and sound?

4. Yes but under her the provincial idiots of the world will unite

:scared:

[YOY]

2. When they get what they want they fuck it up.

When they don't get what they want, someone else is to blame.

Fucking pathetic.

So Sarah is saying that all along she knew that Africa was really a continent and that she really does know more than one Supreme court case?

3. if the media was biased against liberals

how come a bunch of conservatives, from Mike Murphy to Peggy Noonan to David Brooks, all called Palin a joke too?

6. If the media really was as liberal as conservatives claim ...

there would be no Republican party ...

5. Yes, The Press Has Been More Cruel to Palin Than It Has Kennedy

But only because Palin gave them so much more ammunition. Um, you know?

I mean, I'm sorry Sarah, but 'dead President daddy' just looks so much better in Washington than 'pregnant teenage daughter and crack-head son.'
