Hacker From That Times Story On Palin Emails: "i wish they'd done it properly" [Hackers]
Perhaps yesterday's Sarah Palin email hack reminded you of that brilliant engrossing story the New York Times ran back in July about 4chan, the juvenile message board community of hackers, trolls and sundry internet misanthropes that pulled it off?

Jezebel "Bugs" Fox & Friends Host Steve Doocy [Clips]
newVideoPlayer("/Fox_Friends_Jezebel.flv", 506, 423,""); So remember that irate screed I wrote about how angry Sarah Palin makes me and many other women?

Yeah…ok

Todd Palin and several other witnesses were subpoenaed to testify this morning, but no one bothered to show up, and the investigators don’t give a shit. And now

Here’s a chart from FiveThirtyEight, the damnable, smartypants, know-it-all site that… oh hell, we read the motherfucker compulsively. This chart shows the net favorability scores of the four candidates based on some recent polls, and as you can see, people are rapidly realizing that Sarah Palin is a rather unsavory character — her numbers last week were about 10-15 points higher.

PBS Fundraiser Turns Into Unscripted Sarah Palin Joke Turns Into Viewer Hate Mail

We decided once and for all we're perfectly fine with our pasty, white skin. Lows: We saw some nipples we don't care much about. We watched Kim Kardash

A Palin-McCain Administration
Apparently Sarah Palin thinks she is running for President. It's not her fault really, nobody is very interested in John McCain running for President. In a speech on Tuesday, Palin opened and electrified the crowd.

Patrick Wilson on Sarah Palin: ‘I Can’t Go There.’
