Sarah Palin to Contribute to Fox News
By JIM RUTENBERG
Former Gov. Sarah Palin of Alaska has signed on as a contributor to the Fox News Channel.

 
Sarah PalinThe network confirmed that Ms. Palin would appear on the network’s programming on a regular basis as part of a multiyear deal. Financial terms were not disclosed.

Ms. Palin will not have her own regular program, one person with knowledge of the deal said, though she will host a series that will run on the network from time to time. This person would not elaborate, but the network does have a precedent for such a series. Oliver L. North is the host of an occasionally running documentary series on the military called “War Stories.”

Many suspected that when Ms. Palin retired as the governor of Alaska last summer she was doing so to pursue some sort of career in television. The Fox News deal, however, would not seem to be all-encompassing, and would appear to give her room for other pursuits, as well.

The deal was formally announced on Monday afternoon. Robert Barnett, Ms. Palin’s lawyer, did not respond to a call for comment. “I am thrilled to be joining the great talent and management team at Fox News. It’s wonderful to be part of a place that so values fair and balanced news,” Ms. Palin said in a statement.

This isn't about ideology as much as it is about a person. Let me look at this as a professional. Palin has 2 problems. First she was a contraversial veep choice on a losing ticket. Maybe she was part of the problem, maybe the best thing McCain could have done. You call it. Thing is, lot of the GOP movers and shakers see it as the former (as do I). It will hurt her ability to raise money with the Wall Street base. The second problem is more serious. She quit halfway through her first term as governor. This is the death blow. Had she finished her term she would have been a viable Senate candidate. As it is, a lot of her former Alaska supporters see her as a quitter who never really wanted to be governor in the first place. She said she'd do a job, they supported her, and then she quit. The work ethic is alive and well in Alaska. You don't show up for work, people get pissed. This means she couldn't elected dog catcher in the Great White North. Now she has to run for national office. What are the odds of the GOP putting up a lightning rod re-tread? She's done, and has no-one but herself to blame.

just to add a little bit to this, not only did she quit, she quit while "under fire" and never gave a reason for it.

Even if she had a great reason for leaving that was no do to her coming under investagtion(say her family needed her), since she never gave it.  most people will assume it was do to her coming under investagtaion

When in doubt apply common sense. Let's get real, if only for a minute. Here is the deal. She could stay on as Governor, and put up with all of the headaches for $125,000.00 a year, or option B. Cash in on a book deal worth MILLIONS, and take a job in broadcasting which she has experience in for MILLIONS MORE. I would have to think about that, for about 2 seconds! Quitting was the best thing for her to do. She is now a citizen. She didn't "abandon" Alaska. Russia isn't going to come across the Bering Straight anytime soon. She is poised to position herself perfectly if she chooses to run in 2012. We now have the biggest total idiot in the history of the Presidency sitting in 1600 North, and people have the audacity to be critical of her abilities? Give me a break. This woman has done more politically by mistake than that charlatan ever has on purpose. And the idiot's lined up to chant his name and vote for this asshat. This country is at the bottom, no matter how you look at it. If she runs and wins, it will be a total improvement over this band of idiotic pirates we have now.

The dems have been looking for a way to hang this woman since day one, when they flew a plane load of lawyers to Alaska with shovels to dig up as much dirt as possible on her. They are no closer now then they were then.   Bill T.

She also could have "nutted up" and honored the oath she took.

the definition of integrity, its not taking the easy choice, but honoring your commitments, reguardless of the out come for you.


I could file for bankrupcy right now, have all my debt washed away, but that would be a lack of intergity on my part.  When I signed on that doted line, I said I was going to pay. I'm going to pay, if that means I have to sell every thing I own, I'm going to do that.

She said she would be govener, she swore a oath and  then walked away.

her integrity is not in question, we know she has none.
