E-mails from the Palin administration are being withheld from the public and the governor is citing executive privilege.

With subject lines like "Fagan," "Andrew Halcro" and even "Alaska Ear," it makes some wonder how those topics could possibly be policy related; especially since those same e-mails were copied to the governor's husband.


Andree McLeod, who tried repeatedly to get a job with the Palin administration, obtained the e-mails through a public records request. The Department of Law says the e-mails are privileged. Officials say the private e-mails within the Palin administration won't be released.

"If this is about executive privilege and confidential information then Todd should not be privy to them," Fagan said. "He's a regular citizen he does not get to be co-governor. We did not slash Todd on the ballot box."
