The Web site article was somewhat "interesting" (thanks David) but I was
disappointed to find nothing really substantially related to Records
Management issues in the hackers-provided information or the Web posting
itself. There are a lot of emotionally driven claims and statements on the
Internet that seem to be only be used to drive up the number of hits on a
Web site so the owner can raise their advertising revenues. So, I think it
would be good to make sure considering all of this interest in public vs
private email (and there will be a lot of claims in the coming weeks about
Palin's and other emails) that we determine if we are looking at validated
facts or sensationalized opinion. There will be a lot of the latter.

I have no problem with David's post to the list and feel confident that most
of us here are intelligent enough to filter information and form our own
opinions regardless of the topic. If not, then I agree it is best to just
ignore the topic rather than lecture the list on media bias.

We need to be VERY careful about drawing into this listserv unsubstantiated
claims by self admitted hackers. There are already examples of partisans on
both sides of these political issues transmitting innuendos, poorly
validated data, and outright lies. Much of the the commercial media has an
obvious bias and the Internet has both bias and almost no responsibility for
their actions. Notice that this was "An activist group calling itself
'anonymous'".
Claims by one group or another can be found on any version of the evening
news, where there is at least some attempt to validate those claims. I
suggest that we focus on substantive opinion, validated facts, and
professional issues debate, or I will ignore threads like this.

Hello All,
Since this the hot topic right now I just thought I would pass this link on.
It looks like someone hacked Sarah Palin's e-mail and has posted samples
on-line. I have not looked into the 'issue' at all but it would seem the
question of whether she may be using a personal email account for official
business might be answered soon.

Kind regards,
