Fox to air Palin's Tea Party address
Politico ^ | 02-02-10 | Michael Calderone

Fox News will broadcast Sarah Palin’s keynote address to the National Tea Party Convention live on Saturday night, allowing millions of viewers to see the main attraction of a gathering that was once criticized for barring the press.

The network, which pays Palin as a political analyst and is considered the favored network of conservatives, will carry Palin’s speech during Geraldo at Large in the 9 p.m. hour, a network spokeswoman told POLITICO.

On Monday, convention organizers announced that they had credentialed Fox as well as CNN, Reuters TV and Pajamas Media, and was working with them to facilitate video coverage of select parts of the convention. But neither the organizers, nor the media outlets, announced specific coverage plans.

Representatives for CNN, which has the second widest reach among credentialed broadcast outlets to Fox, did not immediately respond to an email asking whether they intended to broadcast Palin’s speech or any other portions of the convention live.

Boy this is interesting legal ground. An undeclared candidate, giving a political speech, while being employed by a news outlet, possibly being coved by opposing media channels, etc, etc...???

A little FRiendly advice. Next time use a [/sarc] tag or you may end up as a whiff of ozone.

i thought barack said this is not a news channel, So who cares. It’s not our problem that your liberal station can’t attract peon to watch. Both folks use media so if you have a problem with her, then go chase down al franken to complain...your logic failed so go away.

Why do you believe “inferring” not the correct word in the post you had cited?

Oh Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet! Thanks for the ping! I am so GLAD that I will be able to see her and hear her speech! I LOVE FOX NEWS! They seem to understand that there are a great big bunch of conservatives who are TIRED of the mainstream media cabal and who are TIRED of only the RINO so called conservative getting all the mainstream media attention!

Whoooooooooooooooo Hoooooooooooooo Sarah....you go get um girl! God BLESS YOU Sarah with great wisdom, continuing humor and common sense and with a very tough skin!!

I'll concede that "infer" can be used in lieu of "imply" but I have been taught, and most usage authorities agree, that "imply" is preferable.

"You can bet that FOX will rebroadcast the speech at least twice on Sunday, and maybe even the following weekend."

I hope so. I saw the speech but was not in position to record it last night.
