Hard to believe the left hates Palin so much that they would be blind enough to believe something like this. How stupid do you have to be to believe that? Best part is reading the comment section at washington post as well as #SuziParkerScoops this woman who wrote the article is getting absolutely crucified for her shoddy journalism. Parody Website Fools The Washington Post Into Thinking Sarah Palin Heading To Al Jazeera âThe Sarah Palin Story is a cautionary tale about what can happen when politics and celebrity meet,â beginsWashington Post contributor Suzi Parkerâs profile of Sarah Palinâs move from Fox News Channel to the future cable news network Al Jazeera English. âLate last week Al Jazeera America announced the former vice-presidential candidate would be joining their news network.â The only problem with Parkerâs scoop is that the news of Palinâs move comes from the comedy news site The Daily Currant, which recently published a wide-ranging âinterviewâ with Palin about her lateral career move. The Daily Currant describes itself as âthe global satirical newspaper of record.â As you all know, Iâm not a big fan of newspapers, journalists, news anchors and the liberal media in general,â Palin told the Web site The Daily Currant. âBut I met with the folks at Al-Jazeera and they told me they reach millions of devoutly religious people who donât watch CBS or CNN. That tells me they donât have a liberal bias.â âIronically, Fox News recently called Al Jazeera âan anti-American terror mouthpiece,â Parker noted ironically. âBless her heart, is Palin trying her best to stay relevant while her 15 minutes fades into the political history books?â Parker asked, after noting that the former Alaska governor posted a message on her Facebook announcing her intention to attend the memorial service of slain Navy SEAL Chris Kyle. Parkerâs comprehensive editorial-cum-profile of Palin and her career cites multiple sources and includes several supporting quotes, but is unfortunately based on a faulty premise. The Daily Currant fooled a number of culture watchers on the internet recent when they called out conservative commentator Ann Coulter for refusing to board a plane piloted by an African-American. The incident never occurred, but the opportunity to confirm the biases of those who disagree with Coulter was too good to pass up. That bit of ânewsâ made it around the internet before it was widely debunked for having originated from a comedy news site. An earlier version of this post incorrectly reported that Sarah Palin had signed on as a contributor to the Al Jazeera America news network. The blogger cited a report on the Daily Currant Web site as the basis for that information without realizing that the piece was satirical. The original article was titled âSarah Palinâs plan to reach âmillions of devoutly religious peopleâ through al-Jazeera.â The amended now reads âSarah Palin tries to stay relevant.â http://www.mediaite.com/online/paro...o-thinking-sarah-palin-heading-to-al-jazeera/
As someone commented on one of the sites that picked up this story that it seems the MSM (leftwing media) are quick to fall for and then broadcast these hoaxes if they are about the Right than they are about the Left.
