Memo to media: The Palin rape-kit story has not been "debunked"

As much as I've written on this subject and the research I've put into it, I feel this article does the best job of getting the facts straight.

The only thing they missed was the curious phrasing of Charlie Fannon's quote:

"In the past weve charged the cost of exams to the victims insurance company when possible." (Emphasis mine.)

Presumably, when a rape victim had no insurance, that left the burden on her. Regardless, it was a despicable policy, and indicative of Sarah Palin's bizarre policies.
