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."

Seems to me, 0prah has earned a much deserved snub from Sarah Palin. How dare she think that now the election is over Sarah would be chomping at the bit to be grilled by her with her BabaWaaWaa “ sensitive” type questions about the baby to the clothes etc.
‘To hell with 0prah. She had THE ONE on her show while he was running for the nomination but prior to snagging the actual nomination from the RED QUEEN and would not make her show a ‘political forum for either party” though it was NO secret she supported 0bama, gave a rousing intro for him at one point and went hysterical on her show screaming in delight after he pounded McC.
So why on earth would this highly successful Gov of the great state of Alaska, who has really important things to do, take time from her family and business at hand for 0prah who is so full of herself she thinks stores should open at odd hours around the world for her.
You go girl...not being on 0prah is not going to hurt you in the least...you have a base and there is no doubt about it. Some talking head on tv the other day said “ Sarah NEEDS 0prah to be successful..” as if 0prah is a king maker.. hrump I say. Palin for Pres in 2012!!

Intentionally? Reminds of that Russian woman in Seinfeld who got testy with Elaine and said, "There are no BIG coincidences!" Anyway, why should Palin waste time with a racist? I hope Palin treats this manufactured controversy as a triviality.

I quit watchin 0prah years ago and guess in insulted my daughters when they were starting to say for the umpteenth time “ but 0prah says..” to which I said “ Oh no, not more according to the gospel of 0prah!” That shut them up and they don’t mention her name to me anymore.

I am sure that she has thrown the F-Bomb around a few times.
I really hope that she tells oprah that since she had no time for her during the election, that she has no time for Oprah now.
Who cares about Oprah, Ellen, The View etc and their nitwit viewers!

I’m sure Sarah has better things to do with her life than share a couch with Pope-rah. Hopefully she is snubbing her.

it’s actually worked on a few people thus far.

Was in the Doc’s and said to my wife though I let everyone hear what I was saying.

“Hey honey can you believe anyone watches this and I wonder why they call it a news reporting station as it never tells the truth and always lies about republicans.
you would think if anyone watches this station it must be because they have no brains or just need entertaining”

I swear not one person looked over at the TV after that in the waiting room, they all turned away which in a childish sort of way I found funny .

Libes have bene doing this for years and hopefully the GOP calls the media out other wise the media will only get worse.

I hope she tells Oprah to go f**k herself!

I hope she does that the same day that President Bush tells the whole country to go f##k themselves.

You know what sucks, she said nothing but nice things about Oprah too... but the double OO train was running, if you were in the way, you got run over.

Not to mention Oprah’s site deleting the correct record on the Russia/Alaska lie (that was Fey), the ‘complete’ interview with her (instead of the chopped, edited one with our favorite guy); not correcting the record, even deleting the information period.

As O said, she didn’t use her show for politics during elections (because when you see her stumping for Obie, you don’t know her re: the show, she’s just an individual, cough)

well, apparently everybody else has already ‘hoped’ so before me so I’ll be left to hope that everybody elses hopes are fulfilled (that Sarah really did diss The Oprah).

And absolutely forever avoid the skanks on The View.

"People without cable. "

Uh, I don't have cable.

Neither do I watch TV, unlike some layabouts posting here.

LOL true

When I was in the military I would have a proper fist vicious fight with a mate and then I would be drinking beer with him less than 10 mins later

When I have an argument with a woman it goes on for months.
just when I think it is over she brings the same stuff up I thought was all sorted out

I hope Sarah told Oprah that she can keep the false hope and change. Sarah won’t be appearing on Oprah and she won’t be appearing on that donkey Barbara Walters either. After the way Barbara treated Sarah last night on her stupid 10 most fascinating people show, Barbara came across as a bitter, jealous, old hack who behaved like a whacko. I was actually waiting for her to spin her head around and spit out pea soup. Oprah is desperate for ratings, her show has hit a huge decline. Who watches Oprah..I’ll tell ya, Obama supporters, she already pissed off Republicans so they dropped her. Her show has dropped 30 percent in the ratings, ya know what would be hilarious, if Oprah went to Washington asking for a bailout LOL

they’re like sheep who have been rounded up.

First thing I say if I meet an obama voter is ask them do you think the messiah will get another term

their face is pricless

my mother in law is one of those brain dead fools , course she is a MA Dem so no surprise there.

Sad thing is that she thinks those shows are serious shows who tell the truth.She gets her news and info from the likes or the view, Ellen etc.

When she comes down here to Dixie and my house I never have the shows on my TV and to see the mother in law have withdrawal symptoms is amazing.
