You know, I'd forgotten that the trial is under way in the Palin email hacking case.  Heck, if closing arguments were Monday, then the verdict might be down by the time you read this.  Not that much of the media cares.

I know, I know, it's a very tired trope but imagine if this happened to Nancy Pelosi, Hillary Clinton, etc., etc.  It would not be a funny story about how stupid Palin was to have her account so easily hacked.  It would be A Tragic Story Of The Hate For Women and whatever.

The story is fascinating in that it appears that the defense is conceding that he did it.  At least, that's how I take it.  You know, this is actually a pretty serious thing.  Hacking into someone's email is serious business, more so when it's a public figure. 

So, yes, it'll be interesting to see what happens here.  And to see if the media gives a crap.
