Is Sarah Palin intentionally snubbing Oprah?

By Courtney Hazlett

The Scoop

updated 9:31 p.m. ET, Thurs., Dec. 4, 2008

Former vice-presidential candidate Sarah Palin has basically spoken in front of most cameras put before her. So why has she yet to appear on "The Oprah Winfrey Show"?

Winfrey, who won’t be hosting her own ball for President-elect Barack Obama during the inauguration but will broadcast her show from D.C. that week, hasn’t forgotten about having the governor on.

In fact, she seems surprised that Palin hasn’t come on the show yet, despite her efforts.

"I said I would be happy to talk to Sarah Palin when the election was over," Winfrey told Extra. "I went and tried to talk to Sarah Palin and instead she talked to Greta Van Susteren. She talked to Matt Lauer. She talked to Larry King, but she didn't talk to me. But maybe she'll talk to me now that she has a book deal."

Governor Palin doesn't need Oprah....for any kind of help, even IF Sarah is selling a book...(which I doubt)

Stay away from Oprah!

I hope so and she should have told Barbara the snake Walters to pound sand as well.

As I understand it, the Alaskan Governor’s office has stated that Governor Palin has received over 900 hundred requests for media interviews and appearances, not just from the US, but from all over the world. Maybe its a case that Oprah just has to get in line.

"Is Sarah Palin intentionally snubbing Oprah?"

This isn't even complicated. Palin has a job to do, namely managing the state of Alaska, and she doesn't have time to go on Oprah and answer their buffoonish, chick-like, sweetie-pie questions. She has dignity, which Oprah does not. I think any politician visiting the talk shows like Leno, Letterman, Oprah, Colbert, or Stewart only debases the ultimate office. Because it's a matter of sinking to their level in order to win votes. It's how you get questions like "boxers or briefs?"

I agree. My guess is that bloated phoney foud her ratings dropping after she endorsed the Obamanation and he won.

NOW SHE needs Palin to boost HER ratings!

The heck with her and her brainless clones on “the view”.

Exercize your intelligence ladies and “Just say no to them”!!

I’ve dumped Letterman as well. He’s been trashing Bush for eight years. I have no use for this self-centered Liberal that uses his show for Liberal propaganda purposes. Surely, these mindless Liberal millionaires will be donating their salaries to spread the wealth that they and their Muslim God have promised. Anyone want to bet, they’ve sheltered their millions and are talking about everyone else’s money. Typical Liberal BS.

I don’t watch Oprah either, in fact I time my visits to the gym so I don’t have to be in the same room with a tv turned on to that crap.

Right. I tolerated Johnny Carson with those dopey NRA skits. SWhould have dumped him too.

I never watch those moronic late night guys.

If I want political satire, I watch South Park.

I'm the staunchest supporter of Governor Palin, BUT it pained me that she did an interview (Nov.12th) with wolf blitzer,(no caps on purpose, he doesn't deserve caps). wolf is a non-human that hates Governor Palin. We just have to get use to the fact that Sarah will do interviews with people that hate her, even though it isn't getting her anywhere.

Hopefully, Freepers won’t watch Leno and Letterman as they continually bash Republicans. You can bet they won’t be humiliating the Muslim Messiah for the next four years. Their Liberal “God” can do no wrong no matter who attacks us or how many are unemployed nor how many time their God raises our taxes. All Liberals aka Socialists get a pass from their media cohorts.

You got it. She doesn’t need them...THEY need her. Isn’t Oprah’s star dimming now? Isn’t one of her magazines going kaput and isn’t she about to give up her show in 2009?
