Where’s the correction on the clothes’ story? How long do we wait for the retraction of the “Kill Him” story, the apology from 0bama for continuing the lie in the debate, from all the other reporters for aiding and abetting??

They’re sorry they botched this one, and hoping they can come up with something else to throw at her.

Said Griffin, “I never really explained the point of the National Review before she finished answering the question. “In no way did I intend to misquote The National Review.”

In the above Griffin tries to pass off some of the blame for the error onto Gov. Palin. What a load of unadulterated BS. Griffin's bias generated the error. He didn't real the National Review Article close enough to realize what was written there; rather, he read what he, himself, thinks is the case. The fact that he tried to use that quote, at all, demonstrates his vacuous integrity. You're unmasked, Griffin ... you're a liberal hack. Live with it.

Palin immediately asked, “Who wrote that?” Griffin stammered, “T-that was in The National Review. I don’t know who wrote that.”

Drive by journalism right there! Quotes from an article, and doesn't even bother to check who he was quoting.

LOL
course they botched it

the idiot admitted on his interview right at the end that they are biased and do not go after obama and Biden

the only ones who do not know the media are pathetic and have lost all credibility is actually the media

now who doesn’t get it

“We also take Drew Griffin and CNN at their word — that this mistake was not intended to mislead viewers to think a conservative magazine had trashed Gov. Palin,” he stated. “Conservatives have endured hundreds — even thousands — of examples of the media deliberately distorting our words and positions. In this case, there was not a deliberate attempt.”

This is total BS! When will we learn to start calling these people out!

It was a talking point put out by either the Obama campaign or CNN which is really the same thing.

A day earlier I saw another CNN reporter say the same thing in a discussion with an anchor and I knew then they mis-quoted what the NRO article was saying.

Anyone that reads National Review know that that was a made up story..These commies at CNN as well as other commie networks will lie about anything that doesn't suit their cause..They should know the conservatives have more brain cells in their little finger than a Dem have in his stupid head..

I did not see this on CNN because I never watch the COmmie News Network..

I agree with your comment whole-heartedly. What "botch"? One absolutely cannot read that NR article without knowing what it meant and one absolutely cannot couch it in the terms that Griffin did without being deliberately, knowingly deceitful. There is no "botching" here. The reporter was attempting to set Palin up for an angry, inaccurate answer.

The whole campaign has been like this. I don't think the anger at the blatant and omnipresent media bias is going to fade anytime soon.

So not only is he a devious, manipulative little crapweasel, but apparently a serial liar as well.

We ‘Botched’ Sarah Palin's Interview

Translation "We botched it in that we failed to get away with it".

Wow, Palin came right back and made the reporter blink!

Don't tell me she isn't ready for prime time!
