http://blogs.e-rockford.com/applesauce/2008/11/12/of-sarah-palin-africa-martin-eisenstadt-fakery-confusion-and-the-news-media/ Pat Cunningham offers an unabashedly liberal perspective on national politics. A note of caution: The language gets a litttle salty on some of the sites to which this blog links. So, don't say you weren't warned. By the way, this blog's name is inspired by the Will Rogers quote, "All politics is applesauce."

Even in her initial \"denials\" she never forcefully said \"ridiculous, of course I know and always knew what every 3rd grader knows: Africa is a continent.\" Since she has no idea what newspapers or magazines she reads, didn\'t know the 3 neighboring members of NAFTA, it isn\'t hard for me to believe she is, in fact, that stupid. Either way, this caribimbo is not ready for prime time. I still have not read anything credible to suggest palin actually knew Africa was not a country but a continent.

Sounds like the moral of the story is-take your "news" with a grain of salt and depend on multiple sources that have an established history of credibility.
