We’ve now reached the point where gossip sites are forced to debunk rumors being circulated uncritically by the mainstream media.
Keep updating, Charlie. No rest for the weary.
KURTZ: But if it’s a “Lifetime Movie of the Week,” Lola, then it seems to me that it’s a very mixed picture from the point of view of a ticket that is trying to get, you know, John McCain and Sarah Palin elected president and vice president of the United States. In other words, it’s great to be a celebrity, and she’ll get a book deal out of it and maybe her own television show, but does it undercut the effort to paint her as a serious, reform-minded governor?
[Lola] OGUNNAIKE: And that’s what she is going to have to guard against. I mean, McCain has been really good about painting Obama as this lightweight, using the word “celebrity” as a pejorative. They don’t want to have a boomerang effect. They don’t want that to come back on Sarah Palin, and people say, yes, she looks good in a bikini clutching an AK-47, but is she equipped to run the country?

CNN has some woman reporter up there to “survey the scene” and she keeps saying that “...even though Sarah Palin has an 82% approval in Alaska, there are still women who disapprove”...she just can’t ever find one to put on camera. It’s getting hilarious.
If the modern day press did their job and just REPORTED the news instead of trying to make the news and trying to promote liberal candidate and policy then maybe half the papers in America would not be failing and closing up. But rally no loss as far as I am concerned....
The left is soooo easy to "dupe".......
What do you bet they are already on the case looking for a regristration on an AK-47 belonging to either Sarah or Todd Palin. When they can’t find a regristration it will turn up on Dkos that she has an illegal gun and they will be demanding to see the regristration.
Trick photography: There’s a gun hidden in that picture............
I like the way he answered his question.
“So I say again, why is MSNBC bearing the brunt of conservative animosity? Is it just a sort of lifetime achievement award for newly demoted demagogue Edward R. Olbermann?”
What about the shot of Palin in a miniskirt and somewhat open blouse? Is that one a fake? Does anyone know?
Nobody wants to see Howie in a bikini except Chris “Damn My Leg Feels Tingly” Matthews.
Upon further inspection, that appears to be a Crosman 760. Hardly an AK-47.

Yes its fake. Snopes has the picture of her that they used to put on the model. The a$$holes even put it on the cover of a fake Playboy magazine.
It’s funny - the press grinning wants us to believe they’re either stupid or grossly incompetent at their jobs.
I’ve never seen a group of people who still have their jobs after being wrong so often...
Except for Lou Dobbs and Glenn Beck, the rest are completely miserable Leftists.
Did it occur to anyone that she would be insulted to be photographed that way? I don’t mean in a bikini, I mean with an AK? What would a reindeer hunter do with a puny little bullet like that? Follow blood trails a long way?
Different tools for different jobs. I doubt she has any particular animosity towards AK’s...but they are pretty crummy big game rifles.
Never underestimeate dumb people with motives.
Good thing the MSM doesn’t know about this very very rare video....
Sarah Palin with a drinking problem....

Thanks for the replies. I thought it was fake, but had not seen a reference here at FR.
