Boston Globe Jokes About Palin's Thinning Hair

What for this time? Ask Beth Teitell. Here's what she says:

It was the hair that launched a thousand quips - and now it’s thinning. At least that was the word from Wasilla, Alaska, where Sarah Palin is so stressed that she appears “underweight’’ to friends, and the up-do known around the world has thinned “to the point where she needed emergency help from her hairdresser,’’ the New York Times reported.

Way to kick someone when she's down. And this is real news! Great stuff from the Boston Globe! Also just a little catty in my opinion.

I also wonder what would be said if Beth had written that Michelle Obama has wide hips and had gained weight because of stress? My guess is that the NAACP and Al Sharpton would have already boycotted the Globe. But if it's Palin, anything goes.
