I know she’s bitter about things but it sad that she blame some people who could have been either friends or helpers in her career.

Debra Grande - I need a little help with your post. If I read it correctly, you are referring to Katie Couric perhaps being a friend, etc. which could ‘ve helped Palin’s career? Katie Couric is only interested in one person. She was not well liked on The Today Show and all were happy to see her leave. Her career is in the toilet. Despite that, she is her biggest fan. She isn’t a friend to anyone but herself. And, Charlie Gibson showed his true colors for buying into the personal attacks approach to journalism. He hurt his career. I believe Sarah Palin was addressing the treatment of the media which had to have been the most blatant character destroying project for them to date.

Is Sarah Palin unfairly treated by the media .. ? OK, I would like to hear in what ways was she treated unfairly - bearing in mind that politicians get immense scrutiny as a matter of course. 1. Attack on Family Sarah complains that Barack’s request to treat his family as “off limit” was respected, but her family (in particular her daughter Bristol) was not spared. However, as a politician Sarah Palin opposes sex education for teenagers. As a fundamentalist Christian Sarah Palin opposes pre-marital sex. And as a matter of fact, her teenage daughter got pregnant OUTSIDE marriage. Now, should not such politician - of whatever affiliation - then be held accountable for the very real results of her beliefs and policies .. ? 2. “If I had run as a Democrat candidate .. ” This is such a whining self-pitying complaint. Take a look at how the media ridicules Caroline Kennedy for her “Uh um, you know ..” stutters. Not a few national media pass judgement that she is not fit to be the junior Senator representing New York. 3. The media attacks her clothes, accent, shoes etc .. There is always a section of the media who caters for readers with interest in fashion or, if you like, who panders to the sexism of their readers. This section of the media will attack any female politicians who they view as meriting an attack on her clothes, accent, shoes, hair .. you name it. I find it frivolous, but I’d just like to point out that the same attacks were also levelled against Hillary Clinton when she was campaigning to be the Democratic Presidential nominee. Perhaps the attacks against her were not so much focused on her clothing as they were against Sarah Palin, but then Hillary Clinton never splurged $150,000 on clothing in a month !!! 4. The media spreads lies about Sarah Palin The media spreads a lot of lies against numerous politicians, both Republicans and Democrats. Have we forgotten about the slanders by the “Swiftboaters” against John Kerry in 2004 ? If a politician does not like the lies, the best remedy is to open up the evidence that proves those are lies.Sarah Palin demands that the media believes her when she says Trig is her son. But if she really wants to be believed, then she’d better open up the evidence .. show us the DNA test ! She refuses, but then she gets offended when people do not believe her. Lady, Kouric may not be the centre of the universe, but neither is you ! Your words are NOT biblical, and so if you want to rebut an allegation, then offer us your evidence so that the public can scrutinise it and make their minds based on facts - not YOUR words. In short, grow up Sarah ! Nobody was impressed by your winkings in a Vice Presidential debate.

Palin is a great example of what is worst about US politicians. In some ways it is great to have her stay in the news because it reminds everyone of how bad politicians can be and serves as a vision of what we do not want as leadership in this country. The people in Alaska must be truly some of the dumbest people in the world to have elected her. In any case, keep it up girl! I still think you need to bring your entire extended family onto the Jerry Springer show as a way to show its watchers how truly low a low lives can get.

So, we’re supposed to believe that Barack Obama was elected as a result of “media malpractice”? What? Each campaign had an interface with the media. And nobody could’ve exposed anything about a candidate that wasn’t there to be exposed. But I must say, Sarah’s improved. She looks great in that color, and I think I heard a couple of actual sentences come out of her mouth. I guess, sometimes a little negative feed-back can really help a person correct their course.
