* Gov. Palin posted this Monday on her Facebook Notes page:
Journey into the Medias Heart of Darkness- JPHow ironic that on a day when we celebrate the 20th anniversary of the enactment of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, The Daily Caller released 15 pages of JournoListers email exchanges about a dark and demented conspiracy regarding my son, Trig.
Its tough to fittingly describe these numerous members of the mainstream media who actively engaged in the debate about this conspiracy back when I was first introduced as John McCains running mate, and its impossible to legitimize any prominent media publication that continues to traffic in this bizarre narrative today. It wasnt just a few fringe characters in that JournoList discussion. It included writers for major newspapers, magazines, and online news publications. Those participating in this immature exchange in attempts to plant seeds of doubt and falsely accuse even included a famous historian.
This JournoList exchange exposes the warped nature of todays media, thus explaining why many of us are forced, in fairness to the public, to utilize other mediums to communicate until the mainstream media wakes up and begins respecting the publics intelligence and desire for truth in reporting. There is a sickness and darkness in todays liberal media. With revelations like the JournoList exchanges, may the light keep shining to expose the problem.
Its always darkest before the dawn. My hope, therefore, is that today, marking the anniversary of our nations attempt to show respect for our brothers and sisters, sons and daughters with special needs, will also mark the beginning of a new, more respectful discourse among members of our media who at least aspire to be fair and objective.

Martin Gross wrote that our politics has abandoned philosophy. I can’t remember a single report from the liberal media in the last two years that was not gossip, cult, or party orientated.
Sarah, bless your efforts and work. I hope that you wake up more people with each writing.
“There is a sickness and darkness in todays liberal media.”
