Is Jimmy Lee Shreeve trustworthy, or does he just make things up? (Sarah Palin)

Jimmy Lee Shreeve wrote an article for England's Telegraph yesterday ("Sarah Palin: Pointing a loaded gun at the environment?", link via this) which contained this completely fabricated Palin quote:

"magnificent, cuddly white bears are doing just fine and don't need our protection. If the ice melts, they'll adapt to living on the land."

That article went on to get over 3300 Diggs. While the person who submitted it has now also posted a mea culpa, the damage has already been done.

The Telegraph has now deleted that quote from their article, without noting that it was deleted.

So, if you want to trust Jimmy Lee Shreeve go ahead, although I don't recommend it in the least.
