The Associated Press reports that a federal judge in Knoxville denied a request by lawyers for David C. Kernell to screen potential jurors by questionnaire about their political views and their attitudes about Sarah Palin.
Kernell is on trial after being indicted (pdf) for accessing Palin’s e-mail account. He allegedly figured out the correct answers to her personal security questions by using information about her available on the Web.
