This came through just now on a Native American Literature discussion list. I had to strip out some bin hex code of some sort, so I hope I didn't miss any:

Below is a paragraph from this week's Time magazine article on Sarah Palin:

[Former Wasilla mayor] Stein says that as mayor, Palin continued to inject religious beliefs into her policy at times. She asked the library how she could go about banning books, he says, because some voters thought they had inappropriate language in them.

The librarian was aghast.

The librarian, Mary Ellen Baker, couldn't be reached for comment, but news reports from the time show that Palin had threatened to fire her for not giving full support to the mayor.

Mary Ellen Baker resigned from her library director job in 1999.



I'll have to search Time and see if there's more to the story.
