The question of who is Trig's mother also has gotten attention from PBS and The New Yorker,
in addition to newpapers, television reports, and blogs around the world.
-- The Palin campaign put the issue of Trig's birth in the forefront of its campaign.
-- Even though this issue might otherwise be a private family matter, it is now in question.
-- Other candidates have put personal medical records into the public, where a question exists.
-- At this point, we are left with serious questions, but no real answers from the Palin campaign.
-- The Palin campaign can easily end these questions, by releasing verifiable information.
"I find the account of her pregnancy and labor provided by Palin to be perplexing ... and I have every right to ask questions about it .... If a story does not make sense or raises serious questions about the sincerity of a candidate's embrace of a core political message, it is not rumor-mongering to ask about it. It is journalism. And in the absence of any information from the Palin campaign, I have aired every possible view trying to explain it. What else am I supposed to do? Pretend that these questions don't exist? Pretend that her story makes sense to me? I owe my readers my honest opinion. That's not rumor-mongering, it's fulfilling my core commitment to my readers."
