Alaska Governor Sarah Palin’s Child Trig May Be Her Daughter’s?
Paul Tosone, iReport: The nation has been abuzz with talk of Sarah Palin, John McCain’s surprise vice-presidential pick. Along with all the stories making their way through the news cycle is one regarding Trig Palin, her youngest child. Apparently, there has been suspicion, some reported through Alaskan media outlets even before the Vice Presidential buzz, that the child actually belongs to her daughter, Bristol Palin.
Normally this would be a personal issue, but this becomes a public matter because of Sarah Palin’s stance against abortion and birth control, promoting ‘abstinence only’ beliefs. The story seems ludicrious, and surely the GOP workers that vetted her would have stopped McCain from choosing her if anything like this were true. Only, now it has come out that Governor Sarah Palin was not vetted properly. The McCain camp states that they didn’t feel it was necessary.
Even if it is entirely false and ludicrous, people are talking about it, and are quite interested in it. It has cropped up on a number of liberal and conservative blogs and sites. So far, no media outlet has outright disproved the rumor (which should be very easy to do), though the Anchorage Daily News has reported the rumor.
