Transcript of Palin on Fox

Raw Story is becoming such a propaganda website that they are giving Media Matters a run for their money. So let's start with what Raw Story said about Palin's first commentator spot on Fox.

In first appearance as Fox News ‘analyst’, Palin dodges O’Reilly’s questions

I'd just watched her appearance online, so I wondered what Raw Story meant. As usual, they start by picking out parts of the conversation to give one appearance of what she said, and then stop right before they ruin their premise.
In this case, they wanted to say that Palin was dodging questions. So they quote Politico:

Interviewed by Fox News’s Bill O’Reilly on his show “The O’Reilly Factor,” Palin trashed many of the critical accounts of her candidacy in the new book “Game Change.” But one story from the book that Palin did not say was “made up” or “a lie” was the description of her uncertainty as to whether Iraq had a hand in the planning of the September 11 attacks.

“I did talk a lot to [campaign strategist] Steve Schmidt about the history of the war and where the attackers could have come from,” Palin said of her debate prep during the fall of 2008 – more than five years after the start of the war in Iraq and seven years after the terrorist attacks that hit New York and Washington.

“I do admit to asking questions about that,” she said.

Of course, they could have just quoted the actual Fox News website. That would have been easy enough. But then they couldn't say, in their headline, that she had dodged questions.

This is from that transcript:

O'REILLY: That's pretty nasty, isn't it?

PALIN: Well, it's pretty made up, too. I — I think that these reporters — who were not in any part of what I was doing there as a VP candidate, I think I explained a lot of this in "Going Rogue," in my book.

O'REILLY: Is he...

PALIN: I was there...

O'REILLY: Is he lying?

PALIN: They were not there.

O'REILLY: Is this guy lying? He says you don't know the difference between North and South Korea.

PALIN: Yes, that surprised me. I hadn't seen the "60 Minutes" and I — I had been warned, you know, don't — don't watch. It's a bunch of BS from Schmidt (INAUDIBLE) and those guys...

O'REILLY: Is that a lie though?

PALIN: Yes, that is a lie.

O'REILLY: OK.

PALIN: That is a lie.

Go to Raw Story and see what they say. Then go to the transcript, and see if its accurate.
Raw Story is quickly becoming one of the least accurate websites that people send me to. When someone heads me in that direction, the first thing that I do is check the original material to see how they misrepresent it.

This time its no different.
