In an editorial posted on its website Sunday night, Sarah's Palin's hometown newspaper in Wasilla, Alaska, warned author and journalist Joe McGinniss (who has moved next door to Palin as he conducts research for a book on the former governor) about a state law that allows the use of deadly force to defend one's property.
The editorial, titled "Wasilla fence fascinating for national media outlets," paints a disparaging portrait both of McGinniss' work and the national media's coverage of his controversial decision to take up temporary residence so close to Palin.
Its concluding sentence reads, "Finally, those who are fond of Joe McGinnis [sic] might remind him (if he doesn't already know) that Alaska has a law that allows the use of deadly force in protection of life and property."
Managing editor Tom Mitchell, who wrote the editorial, said that it was vetted by the Frontiersman's publisher, Kari Sleight, and a reporter at the newspaper.
"I didn't see it as being controversial. It's just a statement of fact," Mitchell told CBS News.

On Saturday, McGinniss told his side of the story to the Washington Post, emphasizing that he respected Palin's privacy and was not interested in spying on her children, as Palin had suggested he was.
Look, this is a pain in the ass for them," he told the Post. "I understand that. If I were her, I'd be upset. I'd be annoyed. But I'd be an adult about it, and I would figure out, okay, how can we resolve this in a way that's not going to make this into something that everybody gets obsessive about?
"By being here, I have learned things, and I've gotten an insight into her character, into her ability to incite hatred, that before I only knew about in the abstract."(continued)

It looks like we have the name of the owner of the house.
Fourty or fifty years ago, back in the day when we were more civilized, he would already have been shown the door.
Now we are forced to live with barbarians.
All he had to do was rent a room at the local Motel instead of baiting Governor Palin by moving next door, but that would be too easy for this troublemaker.
Of course, this is nothing new for Liberals, it is their modus operandi. Reminds me of Pelosi and her gang walking through the D.C. Tea Party folks hoping to incite a riot.
When it didn't happen, they lie about it knowing the Sycophant Press won't expose their treachery.
Laughed RIGHT OUT LOUD! (I wish my bird was a people so he could come and see what’ I’m laughing at...)
How about her ability to inspire Americans to great things? She has the left in her sights in a big way and has the amazing gift of humor to disarm them. I am so sorry that I bought this nutjob's book about the NC murder. I am beginning to think that father may not have been been the guilty party.
Catherine Taylor?
Wait till Burnett show up with his film crew. Also don’t the samon start to run in July. I would think Sarah and her family will be spending alittle more time a Todd’s parents place.
I have to think Sarah and Todd just move next door to the other hiuse they have.
yeah...it would be wrong.
I;m gonna need money for a plane ticket.
Additionally, degenerate Joe has gone public with interviews and press reports, that makes him a public persona like Palin and 1A comes into full force, he has no protection from slander, like Palin.
This was a REALLY stupid move on stalker Joe's part.
THAT is the reason the left fears and loathes her so much.
This is a real kicker as well.
“He’s the author of several books, one of which is an alleged non-fiction story about his exploits in Alaska titled “Going to Extremes.” That was published in 1980. It was a bible for all those who dreamed of moving here or were in the process. Local press wasn’t too kindly to it at the time, saying he missed a lot and exaggerated the rest. “
Check out the sentence.
;)...When I posted that, I was thinking no way would Stewart be bothered about anyone stalking Sarah, but it is just so evocative I couldn’t resist!
It seems that George Soros’s and Media Matters are very involved in the Sarah Palin/Joe McGuinniss book affair right down to the rental of the house and the background of the house. Looks like Catherine Taylor is talking to Media Matters or has talked to MM. Excellent find, Clyde5445!
The credit should go to sussex for posting a thread on it.

seems like sarah and her old neighbor had a few issues
“the woman was renting her house and sought out the author because the Palins had crossed her (owed her money for renovations she had done at their request and never paid her for). So she knew McGinniss was writing the book and found him and offered him the house”
You slimy, self righteous, disgusting, piece of crap, no one in this sad tale is "inciting hated" with more aplomb than YOU! Your attempt to play the victim is nonsense, and only the brain dead lefty PDS sufferers will buy into it. You are making it clear to any decent people left in this country exactly how self-absorbed and dangerous members of "The Media" and their idiot followers are.
Catherine E. Taylor. She also owns a small lot (less than an acre) on the other side of the house. Looks like she inherited the property in 1997 from the records.
The lady is obviously an absentee owner.
