I think you need to lay off the unresponsible journalism you write about Sarah Palin. Totally unethical behavior! She is totally awesome and has accomplished executive experience v/s a man full of corruption!

After reading the ENTIRE email exchange between the ADN and Gov.Palin, I must conclude by the comments from Margarita Zorens and Sarah M Thompson that they ..."just don't get it" either!! I am not now nor have ever really been much of a fan of the "Almost Daily News", but I do not see where they (ADN) printed anything "unethical", "obsessive" nor false or misleading. Part of respectful, honest journalism is to never knowingly printing false or misleading statements. Sometimes that does happen but I know that the ADN and other decent newspapers instantly print retractions and apologies when wrong.
If Sarah and Margarita think the ADN was "unethical" and "obsessive", may I suggest to them that when in line at the grocery store they avert thier eyes from the cover of "The Enquirer" and other pieces of real "unethical" and "obsessive" rag journalism".
