Sarah Palin plays the media like a violin: Her turn now [excerpt] Sarah Palin, with her counterintuitive secret publicity bus tour, is demonstrating one of the most important rules of American politics:

There is nothing that the U.S. media wants more than something it thinks it can't have. Hence the power of news leaks that manipulate the thrust of their initial presentation. Hard-to-get is a rigid rule of human behavior. Ask any teenage boy or girl. [end excerpt]

The media doesn’t get the back of the bus, the front of the bus, or a seat on the bus. They MISSED the bus.

The Atlantic’s Garance Franke-Ruta griped that “reality TV star Palin” was “treating pol reporters like paparazzi — needing and hating, inviting and making chase.”

When Princess Diana was killed after being chased by "paparazzi" (which is a fancy Europeanized way of saying locust media), there was initial horror in the press. Then, to their "relief", Diana's driver had been drinking. They immediately absolved themselves of all blame, primary and tertiary.

Witnesses: Diana's car may have 'bumped' another before crash

BS. Those "paparazzi" chased her like a hunted animal, and were directly responsible for her death. Then, to add insult to injury, they covered her funeral like the parasites they were. On top of that, they hounded Prince Harry and Prince William after her mother was in the grave.

The grace those two men have shown in recent months (including both of them serving in their nation's military, getting promoted, and both earning their helicopter wings) speaks volumes of their character over the low life's in the media.

"One miffed CBS News producer, Ryan Corsaro, pouted: “I just hope to God that one of these young producers with a camera whose bosses are making them follow Sarah Palin as a potential Republican candidate don’t get in a car crash, because this is dangerous,”

"I..hope that ...one don't...get in a crash"??? I could have a lot more respect for these "jorurnalists" if they could learn middle school english.

And I wish all the FOX news reporters would KNOCK IT OFF with all the cutesy attempts to get her to reveal she is running.

No mater how many times she makes it obvious she is not going to answer they press her over and over and over about “How are you leaning?” “Does it look positive so far”

OK WE GET IT. You are hoping to scoop the rest of the planet and get her to “announce” on your show.

WELL KNOCK IT OFF- IT IS VERY ANNOYING.

She’s RUNNING, OK?

Don’t these people KNOW that as soon as she becomes an ‘official’ candidate she has to abide by all kinds of legalities?

I dont care if she ever “announces”. I am voting for her and vice-president Bachman.

What makes Sarah stand out in the national GOP field is that she is beholden to no one and controls her own destiny

I would add that she is beholden to her Creator. She loves the Nation of her birth. She cherishes her husband and her family.

And by all accounts, Sarahcuda is fearless! The one time she let her guard down was with the perky one over those stupid little inferences that the hick from Alaska never read anything of substance. [At least that is my read on her question "When it comes to establishing your worldview, I was curious, what newspapers and magazines did you regularly read before you were tapped for this to stay informed and to understand the world?"]

You know, what do you read besides "Guns & Ammo"?

Remember that Lady Palin is a journalism major. She knows that the DC Press is not digging for the news. They are lazy, and are so used to being spoon-fed the daily reports from news releases. Thus, an exact same phrase being repeated by nearly every media voice on a news topic. You would think that an editor could at least learn to reword the news release to make it sound at least a little more original. But, no! They repeat it word for word. After years of doing that, do you think they even take the effort to fact-check any more?

The answer if very evident. Mr. Obama was never vetted to prove his full qualifications for the office, and the poor attempt to throw out a facisimile representation of proof, shot to pieces by so many, was just further evidence of their complete bias, that the MSM has proven they do not have the best intentions for our Nation. Even little Piper knows that, running down-field blocking for her MaMa. Actually she set a fairly good post [in basketball terms] allowing her Mom some space, while the reporter should have been called for a charging foul.

Even little Piper is showing she can also be fearless, thus the comment yesterday by Todd - "This family has been tested!"
