Now they're saying it was "Anonymous". The same person(s) behind the Scientology anti-campaign on youtube.

Default BREAKING NEWS: Sarah Palin's email hacked - doing GOVERNMENT business on YAHOO!!!!

"A group of computer hackers said yesterday they accessed a Yahoo! e-mail account of Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, the Republican vice presidential nominee, publishing some of her private communications to expose what appeared to be her use of a personal account for government business.

"The hackers posted what they said were personal photos, the contents of several messages, the subject lines of dozens of e-mails and Palin's e-mail contact list on a site called WikiLeaks.org. That site claimed that it received the electronic files from a group identifying itself only as 'Anonymous.'"

I wonder what the headline would've read if Obama or Biden's personal email accounts had been hacked. Something with more outrage toward the hackers and accusatory to the McCain campaign I'm sure.

PS It's not really "Breaking News". It happened more than 12 hours ago. Hannity was talking about it at 3pm today MST. But that's the "impartial" media these days.
