Scanner Emily vs. Sarah Palin

Posted by Emily Farris

 

Sarah Palin hates me. So much so that she recently slammed me (and a few of my friends and colleagues if I'm being honest here) in Esquire.

"Bored, anonymous, pathetic bloggers who lie annoy me….I'll tell you, yesterday the Anchorage Daily News, they called again to ask — double-, triple-, quadruple-check — who is Trig's real mom,” she said, in an interview to be published in the magazine’s March issue.

Perhaps she thinks "Emily Farris" is a pseudonym, or maybe she was alluding to the whole "Scanner Emily" thing, because the bored, pathetic, lying part is right on.

Let's take a little trip down memory lane to September 5, 2008:

Or perhaps our September 2 story was more your style:

What about October 4?

Hey, at least there was some truth in our coverage of the election on October 7:

Damn, I got all excited before the jump thinking this would end up as a "Who Would You Rather" item.

I considered it, and then considered the harm I might inflict on myself if Sarah Palin beat me.

You've nothing to be afraid of, Emily.  We love you so much here, you'd probably even beat Scarlett Johansson.
