'Huffington Post' founder sounds off in Morris
Talk with high-profile pundit raises funds for P.G. Chambers School in Hanover
By Rob Jennings • Daily Record • November 14, 2008

Sarah Palin drew some unlikely support Thursday from liberal-leaning "Huffington Post" founder Arianna Huffington, who voted for President-elect Barack Obama.

Asked whether the media had been unfair to Palin, Huffington -- speaking at a Brooklake Country Club fundraiser for the P.G. Chambers School -- said the real villains were anonymous aides to John McCain who leaked damaging allegations about her.

Huffington, a best-selling author and commentator in addition to her prominent Web site, expressed skepticism about the widely reported charge that Palin was unaware Africa is a continent. She charged that "the media bought it just because it's colorful."

"She was treated entirely unfairly by John McCain's staffers," Huffington said, adding, "If you say something, have the guts to put your name to it."
