Did the writer get the facts straight about who went shopping for the clothes the RNC had Sarah Palin wear? Did she go shopping for the clothes or did the RNC? Was it her suggestion or the RNC's? Did she request $150,000 in clothing? Why does the story tilt towards indicting Sarah in the very first paragraph when the story was about other candidates spending money on themselves? Did Obama or Michelle benefit or get reimbursed for any personal items?
The article is definitely biased. Palin didn't go on the shopping spree, someone from the RNC bought the clothes for her. The author is just trying to "norm" it with what the other candidates personally did. But in today's media environment, the media's answere is "so what". It's like not following up on Obama's "SAVE or create" 2.5 million jobs. This is a lawyers out clause. Only one or two journalists really listen the rest just believe whatever the man says.
I continue to be baffled by this. Somehow its ok to use the money on million dollar private jets, hire multi-million dollar "consultants", buying entire 1/2 infomercials on all major networks specifically to workaround campaign rules, pay for national and even international "polls", rent entire hotels for events etc etc, but spending money on clothes somehow is what we're worried about?
