Fired Official: Governor Did Not Tell the Truth to ABC
2008-09-15
"She's not telling the truth when she told ABC neither she nor her husband pressured me to fire Trooper Wooten," said Walt Monegan, the Alaskan official whose dismissal by Sarah Palin is the focus of a state investigation known as "Troopergate". "And she's not telling the truth to the media about her reasons for firing me."

#7  as always - "Follow the Money" - ABC is owned by Disney.

How does Disney make more money with Obama in office?

#6  ABC...working hard to be the CBS of the 2008 presidential election.

#5  As far as I can tell, this guy SHOULD have been fired for not doing his job and firing Wooten, who should not have been a policeman.

#4  Perhaps but just watch ABC and the rest of the MSM give it the 24/7 coverage.

Remember Abu Graib(sp?) was, in essence, only a few guards being stupid (and poor oversight - not to mention it was already being investigated) but that didn't stop the MSM from giving it daily coverage for 18 months (while not even mentioning the _real_ torture chambers of the enemy).

And given the way ABC twisted the Palin interview I wouldn't put it past them. They are desperate and don't seem to care (or most likely too self-abosrbed to see) that their credibility is going down the toilet.

#3  There is nothing at all to this story.
Picking at straws.

#2  Sounds to me like this guy and the Legislature are looking for some payback.

This is the kind of stuff the MSM and Obama are digging up with their Surge in Alaska.

#1  Ok, first off this guy has an axe to grind. She fired him, now he's trying to do her dirty in return.

Secondly, this is on ABC. They've already done one hatchet job on Gov. Palin. This smells like strike two.

Thirdly, there was no fuss about this when it happened. If this person thinks he has something let him file a wrongful termination suit, just like anyone else would.
