Incentivizing the Anti-Palin Slime

Posted on | July 14, 2010 | 2 Comments

Chris Bodenner at The Atlantic Monthly:

The link is to Jesse Griffin of the Immoral Minority blog, who perpetrated the Palin divorce hoax of August 2009, and who was forced to resign as a kindergarten aide at an Anchorage elementary school after his porn-blogging habits were exposed.

Griffin, Dennis Zaki, Jeanne Devon — when it comes to sliming the Palins, the Atlantic Monthly has no discernible journalistic standards. Any “source” is acceptable, so long as the source is anti-Palin.

UPDATEHmmmm.

    Chris Bodenner is just following orders. The ends justify the means. Did you not get it when I said the gloves were coming off? I am on a mission when it comes to Palin and will do what it takes to destroy her.

    I drive internet traffic at the Atlantic Monthly. You think a breeder wannabe like McArdle could do what I do? I think not. The Atlantic dances to my tune.
