Oprah Winfrey gets 'world exclusive' with Sarah Palin
Orlando Sentinel ^ | Oct. 20, 2009 | Hal Boedeker

Posted on 10/20/2009 10:47:57 AM PDT by Al B.

Sarah Palin wants to sell some books. She is giving an interview to Oprah Winfrey that will air Monday, Nov. 16.

Winfrey has the golden touch when it comes to pushing books.

The Winfrey folks called the interview a "world exclusive." It will be Palin's first interview to promote her book, "Going Rogue: An American Life."

And people said this meeting would never happen! What do you think about this?

The interview will air during the important November ratings period, so Palin should help Winfrey, too.

That's how the book business works, folks.

The interview will be Palin's first appearance on "The Oprah Winfrey Show." Winfrey was a staunch supporter of Barack Obama in last year's presidential election. Former Alaska Gov. Palin was John McCain's running mate.

The Winfrey folks are calling the show "The Oprah Winfrey Show: Exclusive -- Oprah Talks to Sarah Palin."

Very smart move by Palin. Oprah’s minions - suburban housewives - are ripe for picking by Palin.

Besides, she will sell a lot of books to them.

Sorry about all the pings today, FRiends. But how could I resist this one?

As much as I despise people like Oprah and the way they treated Sarah, I think this is a good move. Her audience is EXACTLY the the kinds of folks whose minds Sarah needs to change.

I'm sure she's been careful about the ground rules for this appearance.

She’d better be ready for the “gotcha” style media this time around. Oprah will pull the same kind of crap that Katie and Charlie did.

I doubt it. I think Oprah will be cordial and will emphasize what she has in common with another smart, successful woman.

I’ll watch it on youtube so I don’t increase Oprah’s ratings.

Unless you're one of the 25,000 households with a Neilson box hooked up, nobody knows or cares what you watch.

But if you do have a Neilson box, don't watch Oprah.

I love Palin and I will continue to support her, for now.BUT, this was a VERY reckless move on her part.

My money says that she is going to regret walking into this trap.

Do Oprah fans really read books, or does she just pretend like they do?

Yeah but this “blog” makes it appear she is desperate to sell her book, when in reality her book made the best seller before it was even released. I can just imagine Oprah’s audience, full of Obama zombies, booing her when she enters the stage. Sarah doesn’t need that. The event for the Wisconsin Right To Life is already sold out the minute people heard Sarah would be attending. She doesn’t need the devil Oprah to sell books

In my defense, that link is very clearly, accurately and succinctly labeled.

“I think Oprah will be cordial and will emphasize what she has in common with another smart, successful woman.”

Then why didn’t she do it during the campaign when it would have mattered.....
