Just when we thought Reliable Sources had gone upscale from Mistah KURTZ, this would be the STELTER who used his venue to do a TWO PART feature on BecKKK -- well, Part the First was a half hour or more and the Second was only a five minutes probably for the flack he might have caught from webheads -- and his gushing went to the agog level because, well, NINETY MILLIONS is what agog is about!1
So this morning he did a 3-5 minutes on the *question* don't the PALINs deserve "the benefit of the doubt" over their brawl. He critiqued the coverage, how they JUMPED on it, how one or the other used "reports" meaning no independent sources, blah blah. He did mention at least twice that the PALINs have not commented at all on the brawl, that Mc5planes' chosen mate did post on her FB the next day but without mentioning the brawl, and that CNN has made multiple attempts to get a response from her/them without success.
I submit to Mistah Kurtz STELTER that the PALINs are nothing if not inveterate lip flappers, such that a SILENCE like theirs here speaks volumes to the effect that the REPORTS are not in dispute at all. The answer to your question is: Uh, no, the PALINs do not deserve the benefit of the doubt. Btw, WHAT "doubt"?!1
