More Palin:

"Bored, anonymous, pathetic bloggers who lie annoy me ... I'll tell you, yesterday the Anchorage Daily News, they called again to ask double-, triple-, quadruple-check who is Trig's real mom. And I said, Come on, are you kidding me? We're gonna answer this? Do you not believe me or my doctor? And they said, No, it's been quite cryptic the way that my son's birth has been discussed. And I thought, Okay, more indication of continued problems in the world of journalism."

I find nothing wrong with a newspaper seeking facts about a public official and asking them directly of the official. I see a newspaper seeking access and honest evidence and a governor who refuses to cooperate. And the newspaper was prepared to let the matter drop and killed their story, for Pete's sake. What more does she want if not Coulter-levels of media attention?

Palin should either answer the ADN's legitimate questions or shut up. But she can't seem to do either.
