Victim of a hoax? They could have done a little checking.

Are we to believe this? If it was a hoax why did Cameron, ET, Extra, and all the others repeat it along with the other lies? Is this a McCain staffer CYA?

IF true, lazy, mission oriented yellow journalism lives on.

The only way to make this fair is to have Keith Oberman wrestle nude with a pig on live tv.

From the article:

""Kudos to the inventor of this whole thing," Stein wrote. ..."

Kudos, I suppose, for his continuance of a slanderous attack on Palin. In any other jurisdiction in the Common Law this would hoax have been grounds for an action for libel.

The hoax was limited to the identity of the source in the story about Palin - not the Fox News story itself.

So, the lies are still not retracted. It is just the source of the lies they got wrong.

Har, watching MSNBC is like being the victim of a hoax.

They say they found out this was false and ran a correction on air within minutes.

A lot of good that did, Olberman and others to this day still repeat the lie almost every show they have.

I guess they didn't get ignored the memo.

Palin today said she is concentrating on Alaska and also national problems, and isn't looking to run in 08 at this time

Jindle appears to be on fast track to run in 4 years.

He (at this time) looks like a good running mate for Palin in 08

Pawlenty is another name put out there

His waffling on the vote fraud in his state and his non-answers to the obvious fact that Franken and the ACORN member Sec. of State are aggressively stealing the election there turns me off to him

MSNBC was the victim of a hoax when it reported that an adviser to John McCain had identified himself as the source of an embarrassing story about former vice-presidential candidate Sarah Palin, the network said Wednesday...

Total BS...a skeptic can't be conned. Con artists focus on those who already want to believe.

David Shuster... you forgot to set your alarm clock dude... you're late... Keith Olberman is waiting for you in his bleeding heart liberal sandbox.

Speaking of Olberman... wonder if that tool will put you in the Worst Person in the World pool today? Probably not since you're a bleeding heart lib / Conservative-hater like him.

You might have already seen this, but more on the Eisenstadt hoax...

Eisenstadt identifies himself on a blog as a senior fellow at the Harding Institute for Freedom and Democracy. Yet neither he nor the institute exist; each is part of a hoax dreamed up by a filmmaker named Eitan Gorlin and his partner, Dan Mirvish, the New York Times reported Wednesday.

Oh good, now I won’t be watching MSNBC because of Keith Olberchild, not because of this fraud.

David Shuster is an embarassment to American “journalism”. Such as it is...

These pieces of garbage ran it anyway, knowing full well the effect it would have, they either made it up themselves or didn’t verify their fact. But who cares right? As long as ends are justified, who cares about the means? It’s okay now, since they’ve ‘apologised’. Palin should sue their arses for slander.
