KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) - A writer for Vanity Fair has acknowledged a case of mistaken identity in an unflattering article about Sarah Palin in the magazine's October issue.

Reporter Michael Joseph Gross describes Palin's youngest son, Trig, being pushed in a stroller by his older sister, Piper, before a rally in May in the Kansas City suburb of Independence.

"Trig was with his mother the next day in Wichita (Kan.), but the child in Independence was someone else, and I regret the error," he said.

He doesn't regret anything except getting caught in a lie. Typical journalist pig.

Yikes.

Ya never know what’s going to post or when.

They will never admit that Gross is a liar. TMZ the gossip site is more accurate than most “journolists”. And they use the same “a source familiar with” or “an anonymous source”. I think TMZ is more honest.

He admits it wasn’t true. But I am sure he WISHES it were.

"The problem, which was first reported by the website Politico, was that the boy the reporter described was another child with Down syndrome."

If all of the children with Down syndrome had just been aborted like they should have been in the first place, the liberal reporter wouldn't have made that error. It the fault of pro-lifers!
