Former Alaska Governor and Vice Presidential nominee, Sarah Palin, is threatening to sue author, Joe McGinniss, over the salacious book he has written and released about her entitled, "The Rogue: Searching For The Real Sarah Palin." Palin stated McGinniss may be sued for "Knowingly publishing false statements."

The book alleges she and her husband Todd Palin, are wild cocaine users. It also makes disparaging claims about their disabled toddler Trig. Sales of the biography have been bad, leading McGinniss to blame the mainstream press for running with the tawdry bits.

McGinniss took the unconventional and creepy step of moving all the way to Alaska, right next door to the Palins, while writing the book, prompting her to state he had a view right into her daughter's bedroom. The Palins erected a privacy fence as a result.

Parabolic Microphone

The danger of such a move to the target is, some have been known to employ the use of a parabolic microphone, which has a range of 300 feet. This enables one to listen to those in the structure next door, in addition to monitoring their comings and goings (Parabolic microphone and Parabolic Mic and Monocular).
