Washington Post: ‘Never Mind Obama’s Fishy Birth Certificate, Help Us Investigate Palin’s E-Mails’

Mainstream media moves forward with ‘Operation Palin’ – Phase VI.

This time the charge will be led by The Washington ComPost and The New York Slimes. Fortunately Sad Hill was able to intercept the ‘top secret’ directive issued yesterday to worldwide MSM outlets via the Associated Press.

Operation Palin – Phase VI: ‘Analyze Email’

June 8, 2011

Dear AP Members and distinguished Members of the Press,

Thank you for refusing to perform investigative journalism over the last decade, unless it involved a Conservative or Christian – preferably white, hopefully male.

We are thrilled to report, even though the American public questioned Obama’s birth composite – electronic data from 4 separate documents – little effort on our part was required to defuse the potential regime-changing land mine.

Alas, we must refocus America’s attention on our primary threat – Sarah Palin.

Fear not. Minimal work by AP affiliates is necessary. Recent studies confirm that leftist euro-loving moonbats will do our biding free of charge.

Here is your mission, should you choose to accept it… Simply copy and paste the following document into your media vehicle of choice, then label it as ‘news‘:

Help Us Analyze The Palin E-Mails

(Washington ComPost) Over 24,000 e-mail messages to and from former Alaska governor Sarah Palin during her tenure as Alaska’s governor will be released Friday. That’s a lot of e-mail for us to review so we’re looking for some help from Fix readers to analyze, contextualize, and research those e-mails right alongside Post reporters over the days following the release.

We are limiting this to just 100 spots for people who will work collaboratively in small teams to surface the most important information from the e-mails. Participants can join from anywhere with a computer and an Internet connection. Read more about how it will work.

If you need inspiration before getting started, take a look at what to expect from the e-mail drop. For micro-updates as tomorrow unfolds, check out our new Twitter feed.

(New York Slimes) Times reporters will be in Juneau, the state capital, to begin the process of reviewing the [Palin] e-mails, which we will be posting on nytimes.com starting on Friday afternoon E.D.T.

We’re asking readers to help us identify interesting and newsworthy e-mails, people and events that we may want to highlight. Interested users can fill out a simple form to describe the nature of the e-mail, and provide a name and e-mail address so we’ll know who should get the credit. Join us here on Friday afternoon and into the weekend to participate.
