Why won't she go away. I'm tired of the Sarah palin coverage. She was the vice president canidate for John Mcain for the people that don't know who she is. She left the door open for a 2012 run for president. What a sad day it would be if she ran. I'm also tired of the tea party coverage. Yeah we get it no goverment,taxes blah,blah,blah-end rant.

The majority of media in the U.S. has a conservative slant to it and, to conservatives, whatever Sarah Palin does is considered news. Of course, all this media coverage is backfiring on her. This is a person who has to write down answers to press questions on her hand...

First, if media coverage slants anywhere it slants to the left in the US, and frankly I find the notion that it slants right to be downright comical. There simply is not a serious argument to be made for conservative media dominance when polls of journalist repeatedly show a 4:1 or greater advantage for liberals in journalism (Well meaning or not people are human and bias is introduced).   The only media market that conservatives dominate is talk radio, but outside of that one market the media outlets that slant to the right are the exception to the rule.

As for Palin writing on her palm...OK lets just review really quick:

This glass thing next to Obama's head gives him every word he will say.

This is a list of topics which will still require Palin to actually be able to speak off the top of her head about those issues.

 

OK, now that we have that straight why don't you go ahead and finish telling us all what it means that Palin wrote some topics on her hand.  I know I know you had a great trailing finish where it was implied how horrific it was without actually having to commit to any position you might later be expected to defend...but I wanna know exactly what it means to you when someone writes down a list of topics so they don't forget to talk about them.  So exactly how damning is this?
