In a pair of conservative talk show appearances Wednesday night, Sarah Palin defended presidential contender Newt Gingrich's criticism of fellow Republican Paul Ryan's Medicare plan by reiterating her frustration with the “leftist lame-stream media."
On Sean Hannity’s Fox News show, Palin argued that Gingrich had no reason to apologize for calling Ryan’s Medicare plan “right wing social engineering.”

That’s a lie! She said that Newt was wrong but that he shouldn’t apologized if he believes it and then blame Newt for allowing the media to play these games
Figures ABC News wouldn’t cover the WHOLE story..yes she did say that Newt should not apologize for something if he really believes in it, just because the leftist media gets on his case about it..but then she said that she disagrees with what Newt said and loves Ryan’s plan
Yep, the second I saw the headline I was waiting for someone to come here and start trashing Sarah without seeing the actual interview..ABC stands for “All Barack Channel” they just continue the BS no matter what..anyone that saw that interview knows EXACTLY what Sarah Palin said
Why is it a lie? Is it to harm Palin with the base by making her look anti-right-wing? Is it to help her with the "mainstream" by making her look anti-right-wing?
The spin cycle continues.
I can not stand these a-holes in the media and I’m certain that some FReeper will just read the headline and run with this without actually watching the video
That is why I was quick to respond, I knew what would happen..and I am glad that the majority of people here actually SAW the interview. There is no more “Media” The media died a long long time ago. What you see now is NOT the media, just a bunch of leftist a-holes who will go down the drain with Obama just to protect his ass..who actually watched that interview and thought for ONE second she was agreeing with what Newt said..she was defending his right to say it, of course Newt has a right to say what he said, we can all disagree with him but he has a right to say it..she was just pissed that he even apologized, she basically said that he needs to grow a pair and not give in to the media, if you got an opinion, stick with it, don’t flip flop cause the media gets on your case
It’s probably that ABC need hits on their website and no one can grab attention and hits like Sarah, so they create a fake, lying headline to those who do pay attention to politics to create controversy
You think this is bad? Wait til next year, when the MSM will tear her apart. If Palin says the sky is blue’, they will report the sky is red. It will get worse so save your high blood pressure meds.
The Tea Parties must take over the media. We need a conservative network, newspaper and radio chain—Fox can’t do it all. We have the power—we have but to organize it—heck even the Communists have a newspaper! If one existed how many would subscribe? How many would contribute? How many would advertise in such a paper? I would call it The National Gazette. beck was right in founding The Blaze—but he needs to have it a real paper like USA Today or The New York Times. Call it the Tea Party Gazette if you must—and make it a real Paper with comix, editorials, movie reviews —travel—etc... Bring back some of the old strips—Like Flash Gordon, Brick Bradford, Little Lulu, and such....
If I only had the money....
Newt seems to begrudge reducing the federal government..
He talks like he does but probably DOESN'T..
Newt is starting to look like a "ringer" a mole.. a phoney..
Bad NEWS for me.. who wants to like Newt Gingrich..
Newtie may have "OUTTED" hisself..
Its already worse..If the MSM told me that the sun shall rise in the morning I’d have to go outside and see it for myself. They are nothing but whores for Obama and the Democrat Party, they don’t represent the people anymore, heck did they ever? All they were hoping with this ridiculous headline was for some people who did not see the interview to say “Sarah Palin trashes Republicans and loves Gingrich?” ya know it only takes a few to actually believe the garbage written by the leftist lame-stream media..hopefully a lot of people saw the interview tonight and will see the media for what they are
She did, just another BS story from the media to try and stir friction..media went into the gutter a long time ago
She did rip Newt...that’s what we are saying here on the thread....ABC is twisting her words when she could not be clearer
Why bother getting in a bother, as Sarah said tonight, we all know beforehand what the liberal LSM’s game is. So ABC followed their playbook and took it out of context, I expect nothing less from them. So therefore, I am seldom disappointed with their preordained antics.
As Rush said years ago, the LSM is never going to be a conservative’s friend, so I accept them as the enemy they are.
Write, call, and e-mail the news division and set ‘em straight.
With all of the conservative speak these days, maybe it would be worth another look.
