Help Investigate the Palin Emails (Washington Post Recruits Palin-haters)
The Washington Post ^ | Thursday, June 9, 2011 | Ryan Kellett

Posted on 06/09/2011 10:01:42 AM PDT by kristinn

More than 24,000 e-mail messages sent to and from Sarah Palin during her tenure as Alaska's governor will be released Friday. Join The Post in digging through them. We are looking for 100 organized and dilligent readers who will work alongside Post reporters to analyze, contextualize, and research the emails. Think of it as spending some time in our newsroom.

Our hope is that working together, we can efficiently find interesting information and extract new stories that will lead to further investigation. We don’t know what we’ll find, but we want you to be ready and open for the challenge.

You will communicate with us virtually and work in small teams to make light work of reviewing the email threads. Notice the patterns. Identify recipients and senders. Connect specific emails to larger themes and events.

SNIP

Application form.

Shades of the 1979 seizure of the US Embassy in Tehran!

32 years ago the Ayatollah’s revolutionary Republican Guard overwhelmed the Shah’s police and the Embassy’s US Marine Corps guards. The crazed fundamentalist adherents of the Ayatollah managed to seize intelligence staff as they were desperately attempting to shred and burn classified documents.

Not long after the new Iranian government, after humiliating Jimmy Carter with their threats to try the hostages, released photographs of dozens dark garbed and scarf wearing young muslim women sitting at long tables patiently sifting through the recovered documents in their attempt to reconstitute them.

In emulating the Iranian young revolutionary guards the Washington Post’s editorial staff communes with their inner Stalist core.

Hello! Washington Post?

How is it that you only “investigate” Conservative Republicans?

Hm?

Are you a news media or a propaganda machine?

Hm?

The New York Times is also seeking help investigating Palin, but in an unorganized fashion.

I can think of several Freepers who would be thrilled to help out with this effort.


I agree. Let’s send them on some wild goose chases.

To get involved, we ask that you fill out this form that asks you state your case for why you’d be the right person to help report this story in the days following the e-mail release (Friday, June 10 onward).

Well let's see:

I am a dyed-in-the-Wool, delusional, Kool-Aid-Drinking, Far Left, Extremist Moonbat and not only Hate the U.S. and would like to see it destroyed, but can not stomach anyone who claims to be a Conservative or Republican (even RINO's) and anything I can do to help discredit the ONLY person who can possible defeat our Dear Leader and Messiah (Palin) I'll be more than happy to dedicate as much time as necessary to peruse said emails, looking for the most minute detail which can be twisted and misrepresented in order to further embarrass, denigrate, impugn and harm the "Right's Secret Weapon!"

Wa [Com]Post: Thanks. Welcome aboard!!!

Wow, the negative comments about WaPo’s crap is something to behold there in their comments section.

Some posters are now saying that WaPo is scrubbing their comments.

I don’t know what WaPo was thinking when they ran this article, but they have now created a maelstrom hardly to their liking.

“The Anchorage Daily News is also looking for volunteers to pore over Palin’s emails. Volunteer by emailing David Hulen: dhulen@adn.com

Apparently, they’re all starting to get into the game. The new Journolist memo must have gone out.

Think of it as spending some time in our newsroom.

Think of it as slave labor.

The media is too lazy to pull a few all-nighters to dig up dirt about Palin? Pitiful!

I am so pissed off I just called them and left them a piece of my mind. This is just beyond the pale folks. Why haven’t they got people going through Obama’s emails and visitor logs...oh..that’s right..he doesn’t release them.

THESE PEOPLE MAKE ME SICK! I HOPE THEY ALL ROT IN HELL!

Meet the Washington Post, formerly a newspaper and now a propaganda subsidiary for the DNC, liberal and far-left power structure.

WHY?

Are they sifting through ALL e-mails/correspondence that Mitt Romney sent as Lt. Gov also? How about Giuliani?

The bias is astounding.
