"Which Is Presented as an Essay By [Levi] Johnston…"

September 3, 2009

The Anchorage Daily News reports today on Levi Johnston’s Vanity Fair piece, and goes out on a limb to suggest that maybe it isn’t 100% Johnston’s own work (emphasis mine):

Excerpts of the article, which is presented as an essay by Johnston, were posted Wednesday on the magazine’s Web site…

And that, perhaps, Johnston might not be a 100% reliable source (wha?):

Some of Johnston’s statements appear at odds with what he told the Daily News in a July interview. He said then that he saw a stressed Palin come home late at night. He also said in July that, while Palin was cooking dinner, he heard her saying it would be nice to accept the lucrative offers coming her way.
