Exposed: When McCain Picked Palin, Liberal Journalists . . .

By Rick Pearcey • July 22, 2010, 11:34 AM

. . . "Coordindated the Best Line of Attack," according to the headline of a report in today's Daily Caller.

"In the hours after Sen. John McCain announced his choice of Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin to be his running mate in the last presidential race, members of an online forum called Journolist struggled to make sense of the pick," writes Jonathan Strong. "Many of them were liberal reporters, and in some cases their comments reflected a journalist’s instinct to figure out the meaning of a story."

So far, so good. "But in many other exchanges," Strong continues, "the Journolisters clearly had another, more partisan goal in mind: to formulate the most effective talking points in order to defeat Palin and McCain and help elect Barack Obama president. The tone was more campaign headquarters than newsroom." (emphasis added)
