Help Investigate the Palin Emails (Washington Post Recruits Palin-haters)
The Washington Post ^ | Thursday, June 9, 2011 | Ryan Kellett

Posted on 06/09/2011 10:01:42 AM PDT by kristinn

More than 24,000 e-mail messages sent to and from Sarah Palin during her tenure as Alaska's governor will be released Friday. Join The Post in digging through them. We are looking for 100 organized and dilligent readers who will work alongside Post reporters to analyze, contextualize, and research the emails. Think of it as spending some time in our newsroom.

Our hope is that working together, we can efficiently find interesting information and extract new stories that will lead to further investigation. We don’t know what we’ll find, but we want you to be ready and open for the challenge.

You will communicate with us virtually and work in small teams to make light work of reviewing the email threads. Notice the patterns. Identify recipients and senders. Connect specific emails to larger themes and events.

They got your email address, right?

These people used to have full access to the old Soviet embassy through a steam tunnel they shared (much of downtown DC is served by steam heat from a central plant).

They know who you are!

Dude, you can create a fake throw away e-mail address.

Don't use your real e-mail.

They'd best not scrub my comments.

I simply noted this indicates that the theory that THEY started the fire in Sarah's old church is probably correct and should be investigated.

Wiping out that comment is indicative of GUILT on their part.

The MSM is completely out of the closet as a campaign arm for Obama. I wish they be charged with “in kind” contributions like they tried to do to FNC for refusing to smear GWB.

24,000 Sarah Palin Emails To Be Searchable on Crivella West Website

[excerpt] CARNEGIE, Pa.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Crivella West Incorporated, an advanced analytics and investigational research company, announced today that it will be making available a searchable database for over 24,000 new emails from former Alaskan Governor Sarah Palin’s administration that will be released as a result of public record requests originally made over two years ago. Crivella West is currently hosting the 2,544 emails that were released last year at www.crivellawest.net. Crivella West worked with msnbc.com, Mother Jones and Pro Publica in the release of those emails.

Crivella West is involved in this project because of the opportunity to demonstrate its capabilities and advanced methods for high-tech investigations as well as to feature our patented language analytics technology and allow journalists, news organizations and the public to utilize the technology for their benefit as well.

Crivella West also has an ongoing interest in leveling disparities in technology in legal discovery disputes and the access to public records. This particular release of documents by the State of Alaska illustrates some of the barriers in place for journalists and the public when trying to understand and investigate decisions made by elected officials and governmental agencies. Government’s failure to adopt current technology and modern methods thwart the long-standing public policy of freedom of information laws and access to public records. When the government participates in the legal process on behalf of the public, the same antiquated processes prevent the government from prosecuting its case to the fullest extent of the law. .............................[end excerpt]

Gee, if only they investigated the current administration as thoroughly as a private citizen on a bus vacation.

Some banned Freepers as well - pissant comes to mind.

I know for a fact that some dem groups hire people to write fake letters - offensive letters that perport to come from conservatives. I wonder if the Washington Post will look into that... Just kidding, we all know what side the Washtington Post works for ... And it ain’t us...

Anyone have any idea of these people were also involved in the attempt to burn down Sarah's old church in Wasilla three years ago?

They seem to be the types who'd think of that as a real laugher.

David R Hulen 4740 Newcastle Way Anchorage, AK 99503-7043 (907) 561-3798 Age: 50-54 Associated people: Linda C Hulen, Mason R Hulen

Very unlike THE OTHERS IN THE 48 who have already made efforts to HIDE.

This guy in Alaska even lets his relatives have publicly available addresses and phonenumbers.

He's probably of the impression that most of America is like Anchorage ~ mostly corrupt, mostly Democrat, and mostly unlikely to be particularly nasty.

What a dope he is if this is the case.

The general public has lost TRILLIONS in the Great Obama Recession. Their houses have lost value. Their stocks have lost value. They've lost their jobs. The pukes in Anchorage imagine it's all good because the price of oil is up.

Bill Clinton's campaign advisor tells us that we are near to public violence.

Wieners Weiner just applied, with the following thoughts:

"I'll be happy to do this work for free for you, as long as you come over and wash my car.

I really look forward to the deep thoughts and nuanced interpretations of Palin's emails from the unemployed and friendless WaPo readers who actually want to volunteer for your campaign.

When are you going to investigate Obama's prior work experience or college records? "

Ask if the volunteers get a cool job title like “Washington Correspondent”.

Doubt it. More like “anonymous source” or “unnamed offcial”

"Crivella West"

Wonder if all of their client base would be happy that their vendor is involved in supporting a Journolist flash mob...
