10 to the bill and 3 to the tripe. Palin is a major political figure, hence the attention to pointing out things she got right and wrong. However, in this OPINION piece, their math is all wrong. If you assign 11 people to one and 2 to the other, then the ratio is 5.5 to 1, not 52 to one. They seem to be basing the ratio on the number of pages, which is not what they are arguing (resources). Typical attempt at misinformation. +5 ATP

The "fact checking" of the health care bill was merely comparing the House to the Senate. Besides your opinion link I can not not find anything thats says the AP had 11 reporters fact checking the Palin book as far as the comparing of the bills I can find where 2 people wrote the article but doesnt state how many people they used for resourcing http://www.google.com/hostednews/ap/article/ALeqM5gm81TTE7a0EUL9JlzVML1dnH2N2gD9C2A7E80 I think you are lacking facts

If I was employeed by Rupert Murdoch, I'd instead have them ALL get onto Answer Bag and pretend to be 130 people and seek any and all opportunity to bad mouth Obama and the Democrats. Facts be darned. But that's just my opinion.
