Pissed at Palin or Pissed at Me?

I don't know if anyone needs to be mad at either of us, but those were some of the reactions I got from some viewers Sunday night when I aired a story relating to Troopergate. You can read the copy (with more information) and see the story here.

But, it will be forever posted on YouTube:



Some people love them some Palin. Regardless of if you're one of them... I thought the story was interesting, timely, relevant... and focused on a local father's view of the situation. The focus was (as NPPA guys would say): "Dad is mad at situation." (A little insider trading, that's how we find and write a clear and concise focus to our stories-- we write up a small thesis statement. The story itself is not about whether Palin is bad/good--especially since that's relative and not my call since the investigation is ongoing. The story is about how this dad feels.)
