:rofl: "Inadvertently distributed", but no denial from the Palinites. Like the Mall of America just made the whole thing up. I love it.
Minn. mall later apologizes for allowing ‘only English speaking’ reportersSPRINGFIELD, Missouri - She's no longer the chief executive of Alaska, but Sarah Palin should still be called "governor." And in English only, please.
That was the message sent out by officials at the Mall of America this week, who told reporters planning to cover the Minneapolis-area stop on Palin's "Going Rogue" book tour they must address the 2008 Republican vice presidential candidate by her former title. The guidelines also banned foreign reporters, allowing "only English speaking press."
Mall officials said the guidelines were a mistake, and apologized Wednesday to Palin for the mix up, which they called "an internal miscommunication" that was "inadvertently distributed."
"That should never have been in any kind of press release," said Tina Andreadis, a publicist for publisher HarperCollins in New York, who added foreign reporters would be welcome at Palin's Mall of America stop.
"That's not the message the governor wants to send out," she said.
