Redhunter captured by the game – “Anne Kilkenny’s letter has been debunked.” Here’s factcheck’s own line on that…

“Correction: In our original story, we incorrectly said that a few of the claims we examine here were included in the e-mail by Kilkenny. Only one of the claims – about the librarian’s firing – was similar to an item in that e-mail. We regret the error.”

Just so we’re all clear – Fact check actually quotes Kilkenny neutrally in their own account of the library incident and that account does not claim K.’s account of the library incident is false, though it also offers up Palin’s defense avec (confused?) talk re her “rhetorical” questions. I’ll assume Tom missed Factcheck’s correction, though, in fact, it was unnecessary to anyone who had read the letter closely. I myself sent emails out to folks who passed on those bogus lists of banned books. (BTW – Never made any claims myself on that front, nor did Kilkenny.) Hope Tom would/will bust those on his side who are spreading untruths. Got a LOT ops on that score lately as Mac campaign has been full tilt lying mode lately…
