LA Times media critic points the finger at CNN’s Rick Sanchez on story designed to connect Sarah Palin to the Alaskan Independence Party:
‘Who is Todd Palin? What is his influence?” CNN’s Rick Sanchez asked urgently Tuesday afternoon, just before a commercial break. “What is his tie to AIP, the Alaskan Independence Party?”
The anchorman’s serious tone and dancing eyebrows — not to mention a “The Palins and the Fringe” banner across the bottom of the screen — suggested big surprises. Must-see TV! And all of it coming “right after the break.”
So I holstered the remote for a couple of minutes and waited to see what CNN was up to.
The answer: no good.
The world is waiting for Sanchez’s blockbuster about Barack Obama’s ties to Bill Ayers, ACORN, Tony Rezko and the socialist New Party.
