Sarah Palin still gets the pressie juices flowing

Sitting in the press section of an political event is kind of like being at the kids’ table on Thanksgiving: you’re to be seen, but not heard. But that doesn’t prevent strangeness from happening.

While the assembled BD crew was chatting about who else might get into the presidential race, Sarah Palin’s name arose. After some spirited comments, a CNN hand close by chimed in with news that Joe McGinniss’s book on Palin had hit the streets and he pointed us to a typically-understated Daily News piece in which McGinniss charges that long ago, young Sarah hit the sheets with an NBA basketball player, had a nose for Peruvian marching powder and was otherwise unfaithful to her husband.

“How’s she going to explain that?” the CNNer asked. After reading the Daily News story, it seems she has nothing to explain at all. The one who needs to explain is McGinniss, whose work is so poorly sourced (if at all) that even the New York Times was compelled to trash it.

Still, it was fascinating to see that even the most grotesque fabulism can find a willing audience within certain sectors of the national press. Then again, it was aimed at Palin, so the suspension of disbelief wasn’t just a given, but an article of faith.
