I think FOX has given Sarah Palin all the latitude in the world. She has been given exclusive freedom to speak out on FOX.

Without FOX, she would not have been heard much of anywhere.

FOX is at the point now, that they have to look out for legal problems. They made Newt, Santorum and Huck declare if they planned on running. Sarah has not been made to do that.

But... if she is playing with actually running, they have to protect themselves. They are not owned by Sarah.

If she does plan on running, she has had months of free campaigning, paid campaigning.

And just now she gripes.

Biting the hand that feeds her. (Female dogs do this when they are in a bad mood.)

My guess is that FNC upper management was assured that there would be no legal conflict many ~6 months ago and there will not be one.

Instead FNC has to worry about ethical and perceptional problems here. Who the hell would want to watch Megyn Kelly analyze election exit polls on election night like she did in 2008 (and did a great job too) if she was now spinning a bunch of crazy stuff about Palin wearing a running suit, and using the word ‘we’ when addressing the candidates?? Not me!

And PDS trolls on FR like yourself and a few other frothing at the mouth detractors, and suddenly anti-Sarah sites such as Ace of Spades, Redstate, ...
