This is OLD News and the so called scandal has been shot down and buried .
Travel expense is prepaid and pre authorized weeks in advanced by the Controller office and not the Gov’s office . Theses lefties at ABC are clueless how the real world works.

Another liberal media phony “scandal” with nothing there.
From article:
“In response to inquiries about the document Friday, the McCain-Palin campaign provided a statement from Randy Ruaro, another aide to Palin.
According to Ruaro, Monegan asked for — and received — approval for the travel without telling Palin’s staff his reason for going. “As a matter of routine, the travel was approved by Mike Nizich ... weeks before the actual purpose was made clear by former Commissioner Monegan,” Ruaro wrote.
“When you receive permission to travel, it does not mean that you receive blanket authorization to discuss or do whatever you would like on that trip,” he added. “
