Short version: Palin uses Yahoo account to evade gov't transparency laws; email account then gets hacked and contents are posted to the Internet. Account is then deleted, possibly by Palin, possibly violating more law in the process.

I read about her using a yahoo account but I didn't hear the hacking and deleting bit.

Not that having email on government servers stopped the bush krewe from "accidentally" deleting a huge chunk of emails which just by mere chance happened to include the ones that congress wanted to subpoena (for their investigation into the politicization of the justice department hiring process if I'm remembering correctly).

After Nixon's 18 1/2 minutes of silence you'd think people would have learned having the tapes means you can destroy them.
