On Sept 16, 2008 Wikileaks released VP contender Sarah Palin hacked which revealed screenshots of the US Republican party's Vice-Presidential nominee's Yahoo email account
gov.palin@yahoo.com. The list of emails demonstrated that Palin had sometimes used the account for government business. It had been previously alleged, and is the subject of an ongoing legal case in Alaska, that Palin was unlawfully using another Yahoo account,
gov.sarah@yahoo.com to hide governmental deliberations from the courts and the Alaskan state archives. Due to Palin's political celebrity status in the 2008 November election, the leak was widely reported with over 3,100 media articles on the subject appearing in English alone.
