Hey, I know, let's blame the victim

That's the tack our local news radio, which prides itself on being fair and unbiased, decided to take on the Sarah Palin e-mail hack. While talking to an employee of Politico.com the morning host started making comments to the effect that if Palin hadn't had a private e-mail account it couldn't have been hacked. There was no mention that this was a crime. The host was filling in for the regular duo who are on vacation but it was still pretty obnoxious for a station that prides itself on its even-handedness.
All I can say is that e-mail isn't the only place hacks are involved.

Update: Apparently "blame the victim" is going to be the MSM strategy on this one. There will be no dismay at breaches of privacy, no repudiation of lawlessness, only a "Well, it's not their fault she wasn't doing anything wrong after all" and a shrug. Blech.
