Like I have been saying for a while, she doesn’t need Fox News..they never defended her after Tuscon, they never defended her during the ridiculous smears she is always receiving..Ailes wanted to mold her into someone she is not..she is better off without Fox News
Needed to read all the way to the end to find out that FOX did not get rid of her. She is said to have rejected a contract renewal with a cut in pay. If true, she got rid of FOX and good riddance. FOX/Kucinich Network is dead to me.
FOX has moderates, liberals, blacks, caucasians...why not someone to speak for the 'saucer people'?
Yeah. I don’t have that problem with Fox. I don’t watch the brainless twits (whoa almost slipped there) in the morning.
I don’t watch tv in the afternoon either and I purposely skip Sheep Smith.
But we do record and watch Bret Bair’s News Hour, just ‘cause it provides a glance at how Washington views what it’s up to each day, and with a reasonably conservative thrust to it.
I watch O’Reilly sometimes just for entertainment value. And that’s the attitude I bring to Fox: they are not in business to agree with me on every point, they are not in business to advance the conservative agenda, they are not an arm (obviously) of the Tea Party.
They do what they do to make money and, by God, they do do that....plus they bring me and others some useful conservative commentary and I appreciate that.
You don't know that - just your way of seeing things and you wanted to share your revelation - which means nothing!
I bet you never thought they offered her more and she already made up her mind she was leaving once her contract was up.
You're partially right, SB. When Ailes hired her in 2009, there was every indication that she was going to run for President and might actually win. He thought that he could play queen-maker and shape her into his very own Eliza Doolittle. however, like the Corrupt Bastards Club in Alaska before him, he found out that Palin could not be controlled, and so he found himself "stuck" with her for the duration of her three-year contract. It's been obvious for some time that he's been actively trying to get rid of her, without actually firing her himself, by trying to goad her into breaking her contract on her own.
People around here have known all about Juan for years and years and years and years ~ does he startle you?
Actually, it’s Gov.
OR
She already planned on leaving. Why is it, some automatically think she left because of a pay cut. Show me anywhere SARAH was all about money. She known as a giver not taker and she doesn't toot her own horn.
And you know all this how?
Bump!
Media is null and void in my house. Why would anyone expose themselves to what they are ALL about - propaganda.
Your absolutely right, you said exactly what has been going on..once Sarah realized what was going on the relationship between her and Ailes became strained..she has hardly been on Fox anyway, once in a blue moon..O’Reilly acted like an ass when she was on his show..that was probably Ailes doing too, try to make her feel as uncomfortable as possible so that she would not want to come back
With that said, i think that she's been wanting out of her contract for a long time now, and this was the opportunity both sides had been waiting for to part ways without incurring any damage.
I swear, Sarah could say that the sky is blue and they would STILL report that she said rocks are soft. And you’re right. Liberals CAN’T read (or write, or talk, etc.)
BTW, did you take the test? I guess I don’t know Sarah as well as I thought. Only got 8 right :(
Yeah, remember when she had to divert her One Nation bus tour from Gettysburg to New York when he demanded an immediate meeting to find out what she was up to? Leaked stories at the time suggested that the meeting was very tense and that Ailes was not at all happy with her, and that the Palins returned his arrogance with well-deserved scorn.
Or maybe she's had her fill of electoral politics altogether?
Howard Kurtz is a member of the CPUSA? Who knew?
...the presence of the former Alaska governor on the GOP ticket headed by Sen. John McCain in 2008 invigorated the party – at the time, at least. And although they lost to Obama and Joe Biden, it wasn’t the blowout that Mondale and Ferraro suffered against Ronald Reagan and George H. W. Bush. Ferraro went on to relative political obscurity, twice losing Democratic Party primaries for the US Senate. Ms. Palin, on the other hand, was just getting started......all evidence to the contrary. I'd be happy to hear her take the Oath, but Sarah's main role has been and will probably continue to be to draw fire.
Just a cheap insult...it’s one of those nights when you get fed up with all the media BS...
