How much did printing 24,000 pages of Palin emails cost

[Pryderi]

Also add shipping and hours worked to lift carry and transport all that paper rather than sending electonic copies.

1. Sounds like somebody got reamed

48 times over, in fact.

2. I think that the reason the Palin Alaska folks and the Palin legal team printed them is ....

because it would would really easy for some pages to 'disappear' before being loaded into the boxes.
Also, they didn't want to release them digitally because it would have been too easy for folks to search them without having to painstakingly scan them first.

The GOP were being assholes as usual.

3. They're already on the net and searchable. Rachel gave the MSNBC address,.

I don't feel like reading them or searching. I think I'll just wait for the media to hype the interesting ones.

5. If it is like most FOIA style request, the costs are paid by the requestor

on a per page basis. Redaction costs are covered by the Government.
