Is Sarah Palin is incompetent, stupid, unqualified, or all of the above?

Watch the video for yourself. In an interview with Drew Griffin on CNN, Palin was asked the following:

GRIFFIN: Governor, you've been mocked in the press, the press has been pretty hard on you, the Democrats have been pretty hard on you, but also some conservatives have been pretty hard on you as well. The National Review had a story saying that, you know, I can't tell if Sarah Palin is incompetent, stupid, unqualified, corrupt or all of the above.

PALIN: Who wrote that one? Who wrote it.

GRIFFIN: That was in the National Review. I don't have the author.

Palin was obviously blindsided at being thrown under the proverbial bus by the conservative press. But was this accurately portrayed? Or another case of media bias?

Who was the author? It was Byron York, and he confessed to it too. But read for yourselves his "confession." Read for yourselves the context in which he wrote that. It was obviously not meant as direct criticism towards Palin, but, rather, a reflection of the unbalanced criticism she's been facing, both personally and politically, at the hands of the media in this campaign.

CNN, by the way, has declined to make a retraction or correction here, or even to clarify what was obviously taken far out of context.

Folks, I don't care whether you're a Democrat or a Republican. When you see this example of journalistic incompetence coming out of your Free Press, you should be outraged. If we can't get unbiased reporting, free of propaganda and focused on the truth, we're dead as a nation. The Free Press is one of the checks on government power. When you can't trust it, government thrives. When government thrives, freedom dies.
