The editing of the Sarah Palin interview by ABC News

When excerpts of Charlie Gibson’s interview of Sarah Palin were first shown online and then in different ABC News programs, it was pretty clear they had edited them heavily.

Finally, someone has provided a three part series that contains the full interview of Sarah Palin by ABC’s Charlie Gibson.

From out of nowhere comes Mike Huckabee
