Required Reading - Palin's Facebook Page Unplugged: 'If You Don't Like Her Posts, Leave the Group Dumbass!'

Slate‘s John Dickerson has just published a must-read story on former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin’s Facebook page. The story involves responses to posts she doesn’t want you to see.

Dickerson maintains Palin’s Facebook page is doctored – meaning, they delete the mean posts. But for this piece, Slate used a special computer program that allowed Dickerson and colleague, Jeremy Singer-Vine, to monitor posts before they got the ax. They monitored the page for 12 days, reading reactions during the first three minutes after Palin published a post.
