Calling getHIT in 0.2.8 will give you something like this:

{
"hitId" : "2NFBAT2D5NQYHGPS23AG8TYMUQM73D",
...
"assignments" : [
{
"assignmentId" : "28URCJK63ZVEXS1PWX9AT9JL5HE8XZ",
...
"answer" : {
NOTHING!!!
},
}
],
}

Note that there will be no answers in the "answer" field. This is a bug, and is fixed in 0.2.9 (available now).

This bug is due to a change made by MTurk in the XML that they send back for HITs. It is my fault since my code for handling that XML was brittle -- I was expecting a newline character in a particular place, and MTurk stopped putting a newline there.

Thanks to hmslydia for finding this!
