An attorney for Sarah Palin has delivered a letter threatening legal action against an anti-Palin blogger who was the source of a divorce rumor that the attorney for the former Alaska governor called "categorically false."
Publication of the letter at a Web site that repeated the rumor has uncovered circumstantial evidence that the anti-Palin blogger "Gryphen" is a kindergarten teacher at an Anchorage elementary school.
Saturday, the rumor that Todd and Sarah Palin were divorcing created an online uproar. CNN stringer/anti-Palin blogger Dennis Zaki published a thinly-sourced "news" item asserting that "multiple sources" had confirmed the rumor first published by "Gryphen" at his Immoral Majority blog.
Zaki obtained a copy of a letter from Palin attorney Thomas Van Flein, ordering "Gryphen" to retract the allegations -- calling them "complete fabrications, false and defamatory" -- or face legal action. The Van Flein letter, published by Zaki with the name of the recipient blacked out, ended with this sentence:
"If you do not have an attorney, please let me know if you want to be served with the summons and complaint at the kindergarten where you assist or at your residence." (Emphasis added.)
By publishing the letter, Zaki inadvertantly provided valuable information to an anonymous tipster who compiled online research indicating the identity of "Gryphen," whose Immoral Minority blog received more than 170,000 visits in July. Blogger Dan Riehl received the same information.
The tipster also forwarded examples of the Immoral Minority blog's attacks on Palin, where "Gryphen" used vulgar obscene language in reference to Mrs. Palin, including the so-called "Trig Truther" suggestion that the governor was not actually the mother of her fifth child:
"Wherever Trig came from he has proved to be a very valuable asset to Sarah Palin

when the media claim they went to multple sources to confirm the story, they mean, multiple liberal bloggers
Too bad the sources who out classified information about our troops can’t also be outed and pursued for their actions.
a teacher of children... public school, paid by taxpayers... get the picture?
LLS
I do...every single time. Nothing came up.
Sorry if you were offended.
I actually hope she does pursue this to the very end. So far, we only hear threats of legal action. If her higher calling is exposing media corruption and outing every single ones who lies, then I’m content, even if she doesnt run for president
Any bets he will get at most, a slap on the wrist and a promotion?
In the words of King Leonidas...”Give them nothing...but take from the...EVERYTHING!”
Do to this person what the record companies have done to file swappers...take everything from them. Its all the left understands. Make it known to all it is what will happen for the lies and smears and character assassination.
He also sounds like a real genius. He is quoted on his blog as saying he knows with no doubt that Trig “was not conceived in [Sarah Palin’s] uterus.” Well, he is right on that point... fertilization occurs in the fallopian tube, not the uterus. You’d think with all the money the public schools spend on sex education, he’d know that at least. What a vicious moron he is....
I will bet the farm that he posted during school hours.
Now that is funny.
I do not spend my days on FreeRepublic (I know, but I do have a life) so if it was not for duplicates I sometimes would miss a story.
If I had already read a story but see a duplicate is getting more action I will read both.
Hope this image becomes as much used as the bunny with a pancake on its head.
Good job
A search wasn’t even needed. All you had to do was look in “breaking news.”
There is more evidence for Barack Obama being born in Kenya than for this BS story, yet CNN won’t touch that story with a ten foot pole, except for to try to laugh at it and ridicule it hoping that it will go away.
The leftwing lunatics running CNN have no compunction about radically slanting their reporting and ignoring any stories that do not conform to or may shine a light of transparency on stories deemed injurious to their left-wing orthodoxy.
Gryphen” is a kindergarten teacher,wrong title should be Early Brain Washing Instructr.
