Just 15 minutes after rumor of her selection broke, a Wikipedia editor discovered something interesting. Yesterday, thirty mostly favorable changes were made to Palin's Wikipedia biography.
The user making the changes was "Young Trigg." Trig happens to be the name of Sarah Palin's son.
The changes, all from a single source, included the addition of a quotation calling Palin "a politician of eye-popping integrity." The edits diminished a reference to Palin's participation in a beauty pageant and minimized a section about a controversy over whether Palin used her influence to get her ex-brother-in-law fired.
There have also been a bunch of photos of Sarah when she was supposed to have been pregnant taken off of the web, and some very pointed attacks coming into websites that have challenged Sarah's credibility on a number of issues.
And it is only one day after she was appointed! This is going to be a bumpy ride!
I think it's awful presumptive to insinuate that Governor Palin or one of her associates, had anything to do with this.
ReplyDeleteWith Wiki being open to editing to essentially the world, it's completely possible that Queen Elizabeth did it, after setting up an account called young trigg.
Good point.
ReplyDeleteI mean anybody could have randomly just started to clean up her Wikipedia page for no reason then the fact that they just suddenly decide that there were too many fluffy and possibly negative things on there.
The fact that it started to take place just hours before she was named John McCain's running mate is simply a happy coincidence.
Thanks for pointing that out man, I NEVER would have thought of that one on my own.
...another great post! I now have you 'bookmarked' and forwarded your blog site to several friends.
