WSJ Reporter Sudeep Reddy: "This Palin woman has her facts wrong".....Sarah Palin: "I got them from YOUR newspaper"
Epic pwnage or just some hero worship from all the "snowbilly princess" groupies? I'm going with pwnage.
Step 1: Excerpts from an upcoming speech from Sarah Palin to a trade group are printed at NRO.
Step 2: Sudeep Reddy, a reporter at the Wall Street Journal, criticizes Ms. Palin's remarks about inflationary pressures on consumers. Takeaway line: "Grocery prices haven't risen all that significantly, in fact."
Step 3: The inevitable Facebook post from Ms. Palin discusses the sourcing of her assertion:
Mr. Reddy takes aim at this. He writes: “Grocery prices haven’t risen all that significantly, in fact.” Really? That’s odd, because just last Thursday, November 4, I read an article in Mr. Reddy’s own Wall Street Journal titled “Food Sellers Grit Teeth, Raise Prices: Packagers and Supermarkets Pressured to Pass Along Rising Costs, Even as Consumers Pinch Pennies.”
The article noted that “an inflationary tide is beginning to ripple through America's supermarkets and restaurants…Prices of staples including milk, beef, coffee, cocoa and sugar have risen sharply in recent months.”
4. Step 4: Oh SNAP! It is ON!
Well, the Wall Street Journal IS a pretty big newspaper. You can't expect a person to read EVERY article they've published in the last week or so..........unless that person is a Wall Street Journal Reporter. (EDIT - sentence corrected thanks to the keen eyes of logprof in the comments)
Yeah, that's right. Sarah Palin is STUPID. Keep repeating that story, MSM. All the voters out there might forget the Official Narrative if you let stories like this one run unopposed.
