More on "Going Rogue: An American Life" (Sarah Palin's Memoir)
C4P ^ | 9-29-09 | Tommy Report

Ms. Vincent didn't reveal any details about the book, but did acknowledge it will describe Ms. Palin's frustration over her treatment by the staffers she inherited from the McCain campaign after her surprise pick as the GOP vice presidential nominee last year. Ms. Palin was booked on grueling interviews with hostile reporters while talk-show hosts such as Glenn Beck couldn't even get through to her aides. Mr. Beck tells me he was stunned when he picked up the phone one day just before the election to discover Sarah Palin was on the other end of the line. "She explained that she had been blocked from reaching her audience, so she was now 'going rogue' and booking her own interviews," Mr. Beck told me. "I was thrilled she had burst out of the cage they'd built for her and we were finally talking."

That incident was the only time Ms. Palin declared her independence from her keepers, and it's fitting that the title of her upcoming book will be "Going Rogue: An American Life."

So who was the plant within the McCain organization that set her up for the lousy interviews?

Nicole Wallace.

It’s now #2 at Barnes and Noble. Her Facebook supporters are buying multiple copies and doing everything they can to make this book #1. Perhaps after it hits #1 there, they’ll move on over to Amazon, where she is still stuck at #137.

I can’t find it when I try and search it on Amazon either. Tried every variation including typing the entire title. Nothing.

Absolutely. Wallace had previously worked at CBS, where she became close friends with Katie Couric.

Go figure.

I noticed it doesn’t show up using the standard “search” feature - probably what’s keeping it below the top 100 right now.”

You are right.
The lefty Jeff Bezos up to his stupid, loony left, dirty tricks again.
He does this every time with conservative books.
This is the same Amazon, that allowed every vile comment known to man on Books about Bush, but then proceeded to totally erase any comment that was uncomplimentary of Nancy Pelosi’s book.
I notice that the front page of Amazon books is full of Democratic Party, left wing books, inlcudiung 2 books by 0bama, and another by Ted Kennedy, even though 0bama’s book is currently ranked at a very, very low 150,000+.
Meanwhile, no mention of Glenn Back's book or Michele Malkin's book or any other conservative/anti-0bama book on the front page.

That’s one of the reasons I ordered my copy from Barnes & Noble. didn’t hurt that B&N’s price was a couple of bucks lower than Slamazon’s either.

Yes thank you. Found the link elsewhere. The search performance is criminal though.
