The Spin

Right narrative

Palin's first trial was a total fracas. Juror deliberations were influenced by the judge's planned ruling popping up on smartphones. There is no way she got a fair trial.

Wall Street Journal

Left narrative

Judge Rakoff has been adamant that the notifications played no role whatsoever in jury deliberations. Palin is relentlessly pursuing a case she cannot win.
