You have to be kidding me....

From a CBS blog:

"Palin Becomes Increasingly Accessible to the National Media"
It was less than two weeks ago when Sarah Palin astonished her traveling press corps by lifting the curtain (literally) and journeying to the back of her campaign plane to answer reporters’ questions for the first time after 40 days on the campaign trail. But the candidate who has been criticized for having a bunker mentality when it came to the national media can now lay legitimate claim to being more accessible than either Joe Biden or Barack Obama.

Huh? Just because enough people started bitching about Palin not holding a press conference (where the press are able to ask follow up questions) she starts talking to the journalist folks following her (who her secret service guys are blocking). This is a substitute for a proper conference I suppose. But really? Is this guy serious?

GTFO Scott Conroy. By straight definition, sure that statement is true. But put into the bigger context of this election, this is small potatoes. She should hold a proper press conference, release her medical records, and actually embody the transparency she says that government should have.
