The Palin Emails, why the media moved on and couldn't find a story.

If the person with these emails were a good liberal, then there would still have been a story, there would have been plenty to write about what they had discovered about the national (and historical, we forget that) figure.

Imagine this exact 300 pounds of intimate documents had belonged to Geraldine Ferraro, the media would have written the story as they found it, no matter how flattering to the writer of the emails, they would not have looked, been disappointed at what the historical documents revealed, and then decided that it did not serve their purposes.

The media was not covering a story, or reporting the news, or even open to reporting the news, they were looking solely for something that would feed their narrow, falsified, template on a politician from the opposition party.
