The press ain't playing along so far.....

The early coverage of Sarah Palin shouting "terrorist" has so far been pretty muted. Most of the TV discussion has centered on the wisdom of the tactic, seeming to carry an implicit assertion that the charges are a stretch.

The AP has had an "analysis" piece on top of its top ten for most of the day, "Analysis: Palin's words may backfire on McCain" saying that Palin’s comments were “unsubstantiated and carried a racially tinged subject that John McCain himself may come to regret,” and that the charge about Obama and Ayers “was exaggerated at best if not outright false.”

Palin is now having to defend the comments.

It's a strange new world.
