Looking in from the outside, I'd say you're both right. Palin absolutely created the context for the feeding frenzy by her own actions and words. But that doesn't mean it isn't a feeding frenzy, and it doesn't mean the press aren't desperately trying to hype things up and search for the most salacious or saleable details.

But that is less to do with her being on the right, and the media having a 'liberal bias' and is far more to do with her status as the celebrity politician and whackjob people most love to hate.
