    Serious question re: Palin

    What is the media's obsession with Sarah Palin? She lost the VP. She's no longer the governor of Alaska. What is the deal?

    Oprah. Barbara WaWa. CNN. FOX.

    You name it, she is on it.

      She's on a media tour right now, selling her new book. She's seeking all the attention she's getting right now.

      The media still are repulsed by her, and still will do their best to portray her in a negative light whenever possible. But the attention she's getting now is of her own doing...

          I fixed your typo for you. Basically she is viewed as a hot Eskimo and thus the infatuation with an otherwise dull person.

            Reviewing books and holding public figures accountable is at the core of good journalism, but the Associated Press' treatment of Palin's book seems an unprecedented move at the wire service
            Everything in life is an approximation.

              The AP becomes more embarrassing every day.

              If any news source in America should be even close to unbiased, it's these guys, and they can't pull it off.

                The MSM just stays true to their right wing roots, you don't see them talking about Llyod Benson or Geraldine Ferraro still do you?

                  The funny part about this is all the fact check and debunking that they are doing is creating the tidal wave of support for her. She is literally a political rockstar thanks in part to the media's disdain for her.

                  She has successfully metamorphasized from a VP candidate to a celebrity.
                  "Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf
