Here's one sample:
There are few spouses in politics as hard-working as 46-year-old Todd Mitchell Palin — a native of Dillingham, Alaska, who married his Wasilla High School sweetheart and dropped out of college and eventually found work in the North Slope oil fields.
Doesn't it just tear at the heartstrings, I mean, BARFstrings?
Or this:
At the same time, (Rebecca) Mansour was impressed with Palin’s nimble mind.
Rather than saying Mansour was impressed with what she saw as Palin's nimble mind.
Beyond stuff like that, Draper never digs in, unlike Matt Taibbi, to ask just how much of what Palin allegedly Tweets, etc., is actually her. (Instead of Mansour, as has been documented elsewhere.) It's a hugely uncritical piece.
