AP assigns 11 reporters to fact-check Palin - give Obama, Gore, and other libs a pass
AP Turns Heads for Devoting 11 Reporters to Palin Book 'Fact Check'
Sarah Palin is no normal politician, and at the Associated Press, apparently "Going Rogue" is no normal book.
When the former Republican vice presidential candidate and former Alaska governor wrote her autobiography, the AP found a copy before its release date and assigned 11 people to fact check all 432 pages.
The AP claims Palin misstated her record with regard to travel expenses and taxpayer-funded bailouts, using statements widely reported elsewhere. But it also speculated into Palin's motives for writing "Going Rogue: An American Life," stating as fact that the book "has all the characteristics of a pre-campaign manifesto."
Palin quickly hit back on a Facebook post titled "Really? Still Making Things Up?"

I find it extremely annoying how the pit bulls have set out to smear Sarah Palin. I think she's a breath of fresh air.

I ranted in a more detailed post on my blog, but I think the reason they go after her so hard is because of what/who she represents...Main Street and if the last two years has told us anything, it's that those in the MSM and up in D.C. cannot stand Main Street, Middle Class, Common Sense, Insist-on-Truth America.
