Media makes up a false story that Thatcher will not meet with Palin because it is degrading and Palin is nuts, media reports it, it's picked up world wide, media reported everywhere, when it's discovered to be a hoax, it isn't picked up world wide, isn't reported everywhere, public still believes original hoax was true.
It's called opportunistic liberal progressive agenda driven journalism. It is always anti-republican, anti-conservative, anti-religion (except Darwinism is allowed), and anti-traditional American values.
