Sarah Palin and Fox News Channel Part Ways
Republican former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin has parted ways with Fox News Channel after working for three years as a paid commentator, the cable TV network said on Friday.
Palin, who went from being a little-known governor to a political sensation after Senator John McCain picked her as his running mate in the 2008 presidential election, was one of the channel’s biggest names despite appearing only occasionally.
“We have thoroughly enjoyed our association with Governor Palin,” Bill Shine, Fox News Channel executive vice president of programming, said in a statement. “We wish her the best in her future endeavors.”
Fox News Channel declined to give details of Palin’s departure, and a spokesperson said only that the two had “parted ways.”
Wild Thing’s comment…………..
Sarah showed what she is about and it is all about Sarah. Big disappointment imo. I had enough of her and am glad I don’t have to hear the screechy voice anymore on FOX.
She led her followers ( too many became zombie like in their worship of her) on as she kept them in suspense mode for a year as to would she run or not for President.
She attacked Gov. Rick Perry when he was running for President when she was on Greta’s show with Bachmann. And this was after she had endorsed him when he ran for Gov. Rick Perry had not changed at all but Sarah sure as heck did.
She waited until Nov. 5th to endorse Mitt Romney even after he had won the GOP nomination.
She did many other things that disappointed me I am not going to bother to list here. The important thing is I for one am glad FOX has let her go.
Palin had a lot of supporters who liked her but eventually saw through her. She lost her support in Alaska as they feel she abandoned them when she stepped down. Rather than fight and change an unjust law, she went after the money.
Palin had great potential but she was taken in by the “bright lights” and she “went Hollywood” on us. Now she is headed for oblivion. Disappointing…
Sadly Sarah became a celebrity. She and her screwball daughter like the limelight. Sad. I still prefer Palin to 99% of what the GOP/RNC offers up as representatives of conservatism.
