So there is a double standard? We should not point it out when news readers like Couric have made a mistake? Who exactly does that benefit? Certainly not voters.
A perfect case in point would be the Charlie Gibson question to Palin about the "Bush Doctrine." Would it not be of interest to voters to know that the question was invalid and stupid to ask because there really never has been a stated policy called the Bush Doctrine by the Bush Administration?
It seems to me that for reasons unknown the press is very anxious to have a "gotcha moment" with Palin and it is working against them in public opinion. If they want gotcha moments why not pursue the exquisite stupidity of Biden's statement about President Roosevelt going on TV after the stock market crash of 1929? As an mental exercise try to imagine the Armageddon in the MSM had Palin made that comment.
