Michael Gormley of the AP tries to excuse the unprofessional behavior of the media:

The difference in treatment could also be explained by the position each woman had been seeking. Palin was hoping to become the nation’s first female vice president, just second in command to 72-year-old Sen. John McCain. Meanwhile, Kennedy is vying to be named one of 100 Senators.

Actually, the difference in treatment could NOT be explained that way. If that were a factor, the MSM would have sent hostile investigative teams to sneer at Barak Obama, who has difficulty speaking other than in cliches and platitudes. And they would have given McCain the treatment for his muddled ideas.
