Time Also Publishes Fake Sarah Palin Comment About Christina Aguilera (Updated)

Print
» 87 comments

Remember how Us Weekly‘s website published a story about Sarah Palin trashing Christina Aguilera over her Super Bowl performance? And how it turned out to be a story fabricated for a satirical site? And Us Weekly almost immediately scrubbed the story? ‘Course you do. Well, evidently, Time doesn’t, because they repeated the exact same story.

As our rumor-busting, record-straightening, good-hair-day-having friends at Gossip Cop – who first broke the story of Us Weekly‘s mistakereport, Time mentioned comments made by Palin “during an interview with Sean Hannity” (comments fabricated, of course, for the original, satirical piece on SuperTuesdayNews.com) in a post about Conan O’Brien‘s take on Aguilera’s lacking performance:

In a post about Conan O’Brien making fun of Aguilera, Time casually observes, “And you thought Sarah Palin went overboard by commenting that she wanted to deport the singer?”

Time‘s comment could possibly have been tongue-in-cheek, of course…. but it lacks the proper context to let anyone reading their piece know that Palin never actually said anything about deporting Aguilera.

In their post, Time links to a post on Current’s (as in, Current TV) site – which does indeed link to the original piece of satire, urging readers to visit it “For more Election 2012 laughs.”

Time could very easily cover its… self… here were it to simply acknowledge that the comments were meant to be satire, and were never actually uttered by Palin.

Here’s Gossip Cop’s screenshot of the original Time article:

Update:

Time reached out to us to say that, yes, their post was indeed meant to be tongue-in-cheek. In fact, they used that very phrase! Here’s the clarification they added to the original article:

(CLARIFICATION: Palin did not, in fact, say this. It was a tongue-in-cheek link to an article that was intended as a joke.)

    Well, ya know, this is just another of the uh, lamestream media things who as we know is and but at this time is anti-freedom loving people, and those in Alaska and across the upper fifty-eight and which, like, one of the founding fathers, Abe Lincoln said, yes, but isn’t freedom, like, a good thing then. Well, yeah, I guess so.

    She must be alot smarter then you… She owned three small successful business… became mayor then Governor of one of the largest profiting states along with eliminating corrupt state elected individuals even in her own party and was asked to be a running mate for a presidential bid… Does not sound to dumb to me!

    None of that matters to Democrats, L Sister. Be ready for an 18 month avalanche of personal attacks by the DCMPN (Democrat Campaign Media Posing as News) because they know Democrat economic policies, foreign policies, and government medical version of AMTRAK are such disasters that they only have personal slander as their desperate hope for clinging onto power.

    As for the Time article we can take it or leave it. I don’t think any liberals are going to jump on a sword to defend everything published in Time.

    I’d like to know more about what makes Sarah Palin worthy of your respect. You say she ran three small successful businesses. What were they? Tell me about the profits during her tenure. I’m assuming the corruption was tied to Ted Stevens? What about “troopergate.” She also turned down a pay raise for herself, so no, I don’t think she’s Shiva the Destroyer like some people do.

    Sarah Palin is a source of constant mockery in most of the media. That I’ll give you. Yet, she really seems to lack substance to me and frankly looks pretty foolish at times. As an example she used the word “refudiate” repeatedly. She blamed it on a typo when she tweeted it. Yet, she spoke it several times as well. Ultimately she chose to say “Shakespeare liked to coin new words too.” So, I’m asking you, as a D to a R…..what’s so great about this woman?

    Don’t underestimate just how misogynist Progressives are. Remember, Hillary Clinton won the most votes total in the Democrat primaries. The Powers That Be in the Democrat Party wanted Obama no matter what… it’s not a coincidence that Obama cleaned house in the caucuses and numerous superdelegates openly said they’d buck the will of the people they represented in order to capitulate to the Powers That Be.

    Seriously … you guys (meaning the media) REALLY need to source your stories a bit more carefully. It seems like if you’re not getting it from mediamatters, your getting it from The Onion. Just because the source’s narrative fits your agenda doesn’t make it a reliable source….flash back to carl bernstein on morning joe a few weeks ago trying to explain his calling Palin ignorant in his story 24 hours after her nomination….that was classic. He “had to refer to his notes” for his ‘specific reasons’ the ncited a Tina Fey SNL remark he attributed to Palin, causing the entire set to cringe and murmur “tina fey” under their collective breaths.

    She’s probably “foolish” enough to think the US is made up of 57 states and has 4 branches of government.

    You are cutting out half of what I wrote and then writing a dismissive response. For every stupid thing Obama says I will show you a stupid thing Bush said. Joe “big fucking deal” Biden and Dick “Fuck Off” Cheney. See? Where does this get us? And you don’t know anything about my “heroes” either. Obama has frequently been a let down to me and Chuck Schumer means nothing to me. This isn’t a football game, man. We can’t just scream “you suck” at each other and ever expect anybody to gain anything.

    What I’m sincerely trying to figure out is why you like Sarah Palin. The reason I used the refudiate quote is because that word doesn’t exist. She has spoke it and typed. She has claimed that it was a typo and also compared herself to Shakespeare. She could have just laughed and mover on. From what I can tell she doesn’t just have “gaffes.” It seems like she is just not that articulate or thoughtful. Just a slogan machine. That’s what I think. I want you to give me examples of why I’m mistaken. You don’t have to and you can tell me to get bent. But if you really like this woman and believe she’s worth respecting than you should be able to offer some reasons why.

    .

    For Im loving it: Why I like Palin. I am a conservative woman who has been attacked for my views on issues and told I am not an intelligent and liberated woman based only on my beliefs and values. I happen to be an successful aerospace engineer whose husband has played the role of a stay at home dad at times. My husband has always supported me in making it as far as I can in my choice of a career. While being out of work he took over on the home front. It was shocking one day to come home tired and while I relaxed a little he decorated a birthday cake and greeted all the children and the mothers by name at the front door. What’s my point? According to liberals I am supposed to be subjugated by him and running home to do all the work while he sits in an easy chair in front of the TV in a grubby T-shirt with a beer and burping. But in fact we have a truly liberated household where we have always worked together as a team. The liberals idea of a conservative is way off and woman like me were shouted down and ridiculed not based on who we really are but on a false stereo type.
    Saran Palin is very successful and enjoyed an 80% approval rating as Governor in Alaska and has done much for that state. She is very smart but liberals look for any thing to make something about. You can do it to anyone no matter how smart they are or are not. Lately she was co-producer and star on a successful reality show about Alaska and has been active and successful in promoting candidates for office. The only thing you can attack her for in being unsuccessful is that the liberals forced her out of office and I am one who believes she did that for the people of Alaska because she believed the liberals had rendered the office unable to attend to the business of the people. At the time I thought how much I admired that she put the people first even though I believed it was a career ending move. Not for Sarah Palin however. She always amazes.
    Why I like her so much is not because of all of these successes but because she gave me my voice. Conservative woman have been fighting back and making head way in proving we are free, liberated and choose not to be liberal for our own reasons and not because our husband and fathers tell us to be conservative. She proved we can and are thinking for ourselves and she showed us how to stand up! She will not be silenced and neither will we. She ushered in the year of the conservative woman. I may not vote for her, I haven’t decided yet, but I will always be thankful to her. I don’t decide until I research all of the candidates and they have not even declared themselves yet.
    Sorry about the long, long post. Don’t suppose many will read the whole thing.

    If the media quit running falsehoods and smears about Sarah Palin, they wouldn’t have anything to say about her. Because you KNOW they won’t cover her policy views on the size and scope of government. They know most Americans agree with Palin’s views, so they need to avoid mentioning them at all costs. Hence bogus stories such as this one, which are par for the course.

    Why do you like Sarah Palin? What about her makes you support her and defend her against criticism?

    .
    Perhaps b/c we are not defending her from criticism here but pointing out the instances of conventional wisdom being informed, deliberately?, by calumny.

    There is a huge difference between a legitimate criticism based on FACT and plain old attacks based on lies/parody that become Holy Grail truth for many in the “legitimate” media.
