Scores of journalists descended on Juneau this week in preparation for the release of the e-mails. MSNBC.com deputized 40 volunteers, chosen with the help of the League of Women Voters and the Retired Public Employees of Alaska. They were the reinforcements for the team of two journalists from the Web site and six more from NBC News who flew to Juneau.
The New York Times and The Guardian sent reporters armed with scanners and then solicited readers assistance. Politico enlisted a dozen editors, reporters and interns who worked as a team from their Northern Virginia newsroom plowing through the documents, as one editor described it. The Washington Post initially asked for 100 volunteers to sift through the documents. They were quickly overwhelmed with too many applicants. Unable to screen all of them, the paper abandoned the plan late Thursday, opting instead to invite reader comments.

Charles Mahtesian, national politics editor for Politico, said he was sympathetic to critics who said the news media went into unnecessary overdrive on anything Palin-related. I think theres some truth in what the critics on the right say about a double standard for Sarah Palin, he said. Having said that, she is an incredibly compelling character. And anything she says or does will have a bearing on the 2012 presidential election cycle. So its a pretty easy call as a news story.

Character is not a bad word. Look it up.
They’re calling her a character. Not the same thing. Read the post.
Yes, she is. Isn't she?
LOL! Just like AARP!
"an attempt"...and thats' failing, badly.
its a beautiful funny thing to watch.
Alas Babylon! has a running thread every Sunday morning since 1999 of all the talk shows and his thread starts with a listing of all the shows, their times, Cspan times, email addresses, etc. Its one of the oldest and best threads on fr...one of few threads allowed under breaking news...”the Sunday Morning Talk Show Thread”.
God has truly blessed his servant, Sarah Palin.
He works in mysterious ways.
The lamestream that was gleeful 24 hours ago is getting a blowback it never imagined.
They should have caught on when THE GOVERNOR didn’t fight the release.
The last two presidential candidate I heard called characters by the MSM were Lyndon La Rouche and Ross Perot. Hell, they don't even hang it on Ron Paul today.
but no demands for the twitter or Facebook accounts belonging to Democrat and Pervert Anthony Weiner..

In Iowa, the League of Women Voters sets up outside of packing plants and such (complete with translators) to make it easy for illegals to register to vote.
I am waiting for a video of Bannon on Hannity’s tonight, to be posted, so I can ping Sarah’s List.
The league leans far to the left..
This Sarah wasn’t seen on the campaign trail because of McCain’s establishment consultants, the MSM who wanted Obama and saw Sarah for the threat she is.
It’s the establishment, stupid. (not calling you stupid, btw)
League of Women Voters?
The League gets tax exempt status based on being non-partisan. Someone needs to turn them in...
But of course if they were breaking the law the MSM wouldn't care... they're only gunning for conservatives.
Paul would qualify. Sad, he coulda been a contender if he wasn’t so taken w Jews run the world as they’re about to be annihilated in their home country. He’s right about the fed. That’s about it.
Yes God has sent her to us.
Look it up.
It was a good interview. Said the movie has a commitment for 1000 theaters if the interest is there.
That video needs to go viral!!!! We can help
