Heads up--Palin interview tonight
On GVS, Fox.
Apparently GVS interviews the daughter, Bristol, as well.

I think there is only ONE Governor Palin, at least I hope so.
When is Fox going to interview the OTHER 49 governors?? I hope soon! We wouldn't want to think Fox has an agenda they are pushing, would we? What has Sarah Palin done since the election that is newsworthy?
What have all the OTHER 49 governors done since the election?
One is now on Obama's cabinet, another was impeached, let's see, any other ones that made any news OTHER THAN those two? I don't recall Governor Sarah Palin having made any news.

People just can't seem to get enough of Gov. Palin and I so thought their every need would have been fulfilled on 1/20.

I'll bet the GVS gets her highest ratings of the new year.

True. Point taken.
It won't be an interview. More like a friendly chat.

TIA

New poll shows Palin no longer Alaska's most popular politician
This is the only one I can find off hand. It is from last month and has Palin 31% to Murkowski’s 58% if Palin ran for the Senate.

Now can someone explain to me why FOX is so obsessed with Gov Palin?
IMO...It's obvious to me and about 99% of the rest of the country that Gov Palin doesn't have a future as a GOP leader, so why are they still kissing her rear end?
Why is FOX not following Gov Jindal around?
|
Maybe because Governor Palin looks a lot better (physically attractive) on TV than Governor Jindal, at least for the boys and men in the Fox viewer audience. IMO Governor Jindal is boring to watch and listen to.

Here is the poll:
http://www.thealaskastandard.com/?q=node/232 showing that Murkowski would defeat Palin, by a margin of 58 percent to 31 percent.

wow why was she keeping Trig a secret from her family? |
Gather you did not read the complete article in that link, as it gave the answer to your question.
" Not discussing the pregnancy with her daughters, she felt, would shorten the process and spare them from unwanted attention," according to the book...

Here's another link to a story of today about the book:
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/29223126
Apparently, according to the article, she wanted to spare the daughters from unwanted attention, which is why she kept it a secret from them, in part.
and, according to the article that has a quote from her......
She didn't know in her heart if she would be ready to embrace a child with special needs.
More at link for the full quotes.

I'm pretty sure Rupert Murdoch does. He is the major shareholder, chairman and managing director of News Corporation (News Corp). Beginning with one newspaper in Adelaide, and Fox is one of his entities.

Not so fast, Happy! I certainly NEVER allow Fox channels to be shown in my home. If people want to watch, they have to go elsewhere, I have 2 great TV shows to watch, with Keith Olbermann, followed by Rachel Maddow, every weeknight.
Rachel has some great guests on, including former Presidents, Governors, etc. but I'm sure Governor Palin won't agree to be on her show.

Fox has been advertising it for days with "see how Bristol enjoys being a teenage mother."

Well, you sound like a Palin supporter to me. Your opinions are duly noted.
Whether there are any facts behind your opinions, I'll have to say I can't find them. Charlie Gibson, "disgraced"? No evidence I can find of it. Couric gained a lot of respect from fellow interviewers for her diplomatic statements about Governor Palin after the interviews.
Does Gretta ever talk politics? I thought she only covers sensationalist stories about missing teenagers and missing Congressional interns.

That's just plain disgusting. I guess Palin wants to teach our teenagers that is something they should aspire to???? Not on your life. I think "most" parents are teaching their children just the opposite, but that's just MO.
I don't believe in that type of lifestyle for any teenagers, and I don't think it has any place on TV. Glorifying an obvious irresponsible act is also irresponsible, IMO.

That is not how the show was advertised but why would I expect anything else on a Palin thread.. 
Nothing like sticking to a slim selection of shows that cover one view point.. being Keith and Rachel, that explains alot of the posting around here.. on many threads.
Hilarious... really really hilarious the mention of Gov. Palin and the worms crawl out of the woodwork...

Governor Palin is in her FIRST TERM at Governor of the state of Alaska. She was previously elected to a part time position as mayor of a small Alaska city for approximately 6 years, and was a city council member for four years previous to that. She was NOT elected LT Governor in 2002, and spent four years out of elected office. Her total years in any elective office , (six as part time Mayor) number 12, only slightly over two of which are as Governor of one of America's least populated states.
As to how she "handled Gwen", avoiding direct answers to questions comes to mind, along with lots of winks at the camera.

Love the Polar Bears, who BTW are increasing their numbers. I personally love the wink and far more captivating than the ummmmmmmms and you knows that comes from the Harvard/Columbia graduates like Caroline Kennedy and Obama.

1) Bristol Palin decided on her own to go on Greta
or
2) Sarah Palin now does approve of the children attracting media attention.

It doesn't.. that's why your not getting an answer..
Don't ya just love the twist of words... been watching it being promoted all weekend and I have yet to hear them use the words "enjoy being a teenage mother"...
But you have to consider the poster I guess... twist and turn and make sure you call Obama.. President Obama.. he's no longer just Obama.. now make sure your remember that..

I'm sorry, but I never thought of a Vice Presidential candidate winking as a desirable trait, or image. To each his own. imo
You can put down our Pres. all you want, but the FACT of the matter is, HE IS THE PRESIDENT.  The majority voted him in. IMO

The way I understood it, bottom line, was that she wanted her kids kept out of the national discussion. Wasn't that what her whole criticism of the media was about?
I doubt that her daughter arranged the interview with Greta on her own. IMO
