As of 7:10 p.m., EST, Yahoo's homepage links to a video and blog post that throws the Palin/Lauer interview out of context:
"Today Show": Sarah Palin stirred the proverbial pot again. She really is out to get David Letterman, basically insinuating that he's a creepy old man. Is this loose cannon really the future of the Republican Party? She's certainly the future of great comedy fodder.

Because of Yahoo's featured placement, a hugely slanted version of the interview is now Alexa's number one page on the Internet: http://www.alexa.com/hoturls

This is what I sent:
I visit yahoo for search, and not political commentary. Because you featured such a slanted, out of context video Sarah Palin on your homepage, it is my choice not to use Yahoo search. I had set your homepage as my startpage -- until it started to offer political commentary.
I am glad you posted that! I saw it and thought WTF? Palin ripped Lauer apart. I swear, the liberals will not give up! How about running teleprompter-boy without his teleprompter! Now that is a sight that is just pathetic.
Yahoo reacted quickly. Hope it stays that way.
The awkward interview headline is still up.
Very mild stuff. Newsbusters needs to chill. she didn’t really hit Palin at all.
For someone who they claim is a joke the left seems to be spending quite a bit of time and resources attacking her.
I saw that too....”awkward interview”? how slanted must one be to think that....did you see the picture they had of her? It looked goofy....they are just out to get her....
Both Yahoo and Google BOTH gave money to the Obama Campaign..NUFF SAID
The MSM is a thuggish fascist pack of wolves.
It’s been almost 24 hours and still nothing on Drudge Report about the AGIA deal. Hmmmmmm.
I noticed this too. (I’m on Yahoo all day due to email - they are big time libs but they do it rather discretely.)
This is far worse than Bush Derangement Syndrome.
She must be viewed as a serious threat politically and culturally. No other explanation.
She really is out to get David Letterman, basically insinuating that he’s a creepy old man.
DUH. How is this.Letterman is a creepy old man..
There fixed it.No longer an insinuation....
Is this loose cannon really the future of the Republican Party?
As an American I certainly hope she is amongst the future for this nation which is deeply in trouble with the asswipes we now have running things..........
Actually,he’s a pervert and everyone knows it
The featured picture can’t be Palin. It looks like an actress posing as Palin parody.
Most people know exactly why the MSM, left, and others are bashing Sarah. They resent her for her positions and the life she has lived, including having her beautiful downs syndrome child and the love she and Todd have for that baby and the joy they obviously receive. Most folks (outside the beltway, hollywood, and the urban leftists enclaves understand that, are decent people, and will respond accordingly.
So, the more the MSM, the DNC, the leftists, liberals,and the RINOs go after her, the more respected and better positioned she will be to help us take back our country in 2010 and 2012.
And of course Lauer was so concerned that Palin said she would be keeping her fourteen year old away from Letterman saying, “Don’t you think that is a little unfair?”
I use to like Matt, but honestly he has lost at least 50 IQ points in the last ten years.
His powers of reason have been destroyed somewhere along the way.
If someone’s 14 year old daughter was talked in terms of rape and pedophilia, I don’t think it’d be trying to turn the tables on them, but criticizing their reaction.
Matt, seriously fella, buy a clue if you don’t have any yourself.
How the hell else would he be described? "Pervert" works. "Dirtbag" does too.
