How Terrified is the Liberal Media of Palin?

[teapartysamurai]

The mighty Sarah Palin, not in any political office but who somehow nonetheless rules the world from her Facebook page, clearly terrifies this pathetic little man, Michael Joseph Gross, who was all over the media today to promote his largely unsourced hatchet job on Sarah Palin.

Yes, that’s right: Sarah is so terrifying that no one would speak of her on the record, which is why Gross had to, um, quote unidentified sources about her martial relations, her shopping habits, and other such things crucial to our understanding of her as a politician.
Even on the left, the reviews have been terrible. The Washington Post blogged:

What to make of it all? Politico’s Ben Smith questioned many of the anecdotes and concluded that “you can really write anything about Palin.” The Alaska Dispatch online magazine found the media bubble around Palin newsworthy itself: “A reporter followed Palin around on a speaking tour through four Midwestern states with apparent back-stage access, wrote more than 10,500 words about his experience, and his story doesn’t feature a single new comment from or interview with his subject ….. it’s very unusual.” The Christian Science Monitor summed it up best: “If you are trying to sell books or magazines or get clicks for your website, Republican Party star Sarah Palin is the gift that keeps giving.”​

How Terrified is the MSM of Sarah Palin? ‘Vanity Fair’ Hack Michael Joseph Gross Quivers in Fear as He Smears, Anonymously - Big Journalism

I've said it before. Liberals will tell you who they fear, by how much they "ridicule" someone.

But "unidentified" sources is the way liberal writers simply say what THEY THINK and claim it's from an "unidentified source."

That's an old tactic by the media.

The Liberal "Lamestream Media (love it when Palin says that) has nothing to fear from Palin. In fact, they love her. She provides endless stories and is a constant source of "Can you believe Palin said...THAT?" soundbites

Frankly, she is the only Republican who is even remotely interesting

 

[NYcarbineer]

No fear whatsoever. Palin gets ratings because she's a living breathing cartoon character. It's infotainment remember?

 

[blu]

not at all. if she is on the gop 2012 ticket at all, obama will win in an even bigger landslide

 

[California Girl]

I don't know about the liberal media but she scares the crap out of me.

Palin is a gift to the media that just keeps on giving.

True. Sadly, that is becuase of the progressives that can't seem to get enough of her.

Judging from the turnout she produces, the money she raises and the coverage she garners across the media spectrum, I think it's safe to say no one can get enough of her.

The left is terrified of her.... she is a female who garners the attention of more mainstream women than anyone else. And she's conservative. Oops.

The bra burning crowd is passe.... normal adult women have taken over.

When you're pullin'-down the major-buck$ Crazy Sarah is, who knows what such people are capable of doing.....especially when they're all-the-time braggin' about being "strapped", full-time. ​

"PAL-PAC seems to have been created for a single purpose: to pay Sarah Palin to give a speech. PAL-PAC announced the Palin event at the same time that it announced its own formation. After the Palin event was over, most of the information on PAL-PAC's Web site disappeared. In effect, PAL-PAC was a disposable entertainment company, set up to put on a one-day show that collected the contact information of thousands of people who came to see Palin in the flesh, and to give her their money. The organization has not been mentioned again anywhere online or in local newspapers. The group's financial statements are curious."

Crazy Sarah is starting to sound (more-and-more) like the Bernie Maddof of "political"-fundrai$er$.

“Once, while Sarah was preparing for a city-council meeting, she said, ‘I’m gonna put on one of my push-up bras so I can get what I want tonight.’ That’s how she rolls.”

the liberal media of Palin?

Case in point... See Sheman above.

Easy with the crayolas there Beavis!

Is this how you justify supporting an incompetent quitter?

No she doesn't. Hillary Clinton is viewed FAR more favorably than Palin, and Hillary is actually serving her country, as opposed to running around complaining about it from the peanut gallery.

True. Sadly, that is becuase of the progressives that can't seem to get enough of her.

Funny you could say that, when it's Foxnews that gave her an on-air job, and it's conservative interests that keep paying her tens of thousands of dollars to give speeches to conservatives.

In fact, it's extremely funny you would say that, because it's so fucking retarded.

 

[ScreamingEagle]

Given that Palin is headed for Iowa... and given how many slots are open in Iowa....the fear must be shivering up their liberal legs...

I don't know about the liberal media but she scares the crap out of me.

Yep, me too.

Why? She's just some idiot bimbo, right?
