Question:

Though it is smaller than her gubanatorial investigation, why isn't anyone asking about Palin's Wikipedia?

entry fluffing?

According to NPR's report yesterday, 24 hours before Palin was announced, "someone" went on to her Wikipedia entry, and changed her article to make it more "positive" minimizing her involvement in beauty pagents, I believe removing any mention of her gubanatorial scandal, and other possible negatives to fluff up her so-called bio, and frankly whether it was her, or one of her underlings, would you want someone who so easily bypasses the truth to make herself look better?

If she is such a wonderful and integrity filled woman who is supposed to rival Hillary, why this breach of honesty?

Thankfully, Wikipedia caught it, I believe restored it to its former state, and restricted those who were allowed to edit it (to protect it from those who would make of its truth, a li).

  1. Same reason that political zealots put statements on Yahoo questions and try to disguise them as questions.  


  2. Wikipedia entries get edited frequently.  Even the candidates on the Democrat side of the aisle find their entries changed to be much more "positive".  In fact, this isn't even the first time during this election cycle that an entry has been changed.  And so what if it has?  You're assuming that she made the edits herself or that she instructed someone else to do so.  Those edits could have been posted by anyone, without her knowledge at all.  


  3. Of course, you know that Wiki editing can be done by millions of people. Entries can be modified by anyone, and are all the time. This particular modification was unacceptable, but it sounds like you're accusing her of doing it. Why would anyone ask a question about Wiki, which is questionable information at best anyhow? Does anyone with any intelligence take Wiki at face value? Typical lib finger-pointing.

  4. So in other words, Wiki is censoring what can be written?  Gee, I'm surprised.
