Former Alaskan Governor Sarah Palin’s family vacation tour of historic sites has attracted hordes of media attention—a situation that CBS News Producer Ryan Corsaro characterizes as “dangerous.”
“We’ve been provided with no schedule or itinerary,” Corsaro complained. “We’re forced to stalk her if we want to find out where she’s going and what she’s doing. It’s very aggravating, not to mention dangerous. Every network wants to be first in line to get the best picture, to be close enough to overhear every conversation. Media vehicles are racing with each other, tailgating, weaving in and out of traffic trying to beat out the competition—it’s scary and nerve wracking.”
Corsaro rebuffed suggestions that as an uninvited guest he was, perhaps, invading Ms. Palin’s privacy. “Palin is not a private person,” Corsaro maintained. “People want to know what she’s up to. It’s our duty to tell them. She’s being inconsiderate with us. If she continues with this attitude she shouldn’t be surprised if our coverage turns negative toward her.”
In related news, MSNBC commentator Chris Matthews called Palin “the most divisive figure in American politics since Abraham Lincoln. Just like Lincoln, she has no respect for how the game is supposed to be played. Her criticism of Mitt Romney on the day he announced his candidacy was an insult to an established protocol. As a private citizen I think she should keep her opinions about politics to herself.”

Sounds like she’s over the target!
IF the freakin’ media wazoo apertures think they’re in imminent danger, they they should just ignore Sarah Palin.
LOL!...she's made them absolute looney tunes!
yarr, harr harr, go Sarah
Fake news is dangerous too, CBS, and the lack of investigative journalism on protected classes of candidates.
I was this close to taking the bait.
The poor babies in the state run “media” are upset that Sarah won’t play by THEIR rules. LOL!!! You go girl!!!
“If she continues with this attitude she shouldn’t be surprised if our coverage turns negative toward her.”
He really said that?
So, accordig to Corsaro at CBS, Gov Palin is a public figure; according to Chris Matthews at MSNBC she’s a private citizen. These guys are a laugh a minute.
Corsaro maintained. “People want to know what she’s up to. It’s our duty to tell them. She’s being inconsiderate with us. If she continues with this attitude she shouldn’t be surprised if our coverage turns negative toward her.”
You mean your coverage of Sarah Palin isn’t negative already? Hate to see what y’all do when it gets negative!
“As a private citizen, she should keep her opinions to herself”.
As a private citizens, she can get on a bus any ole’ time she wants and go to wherever she wants. Do only “elected” citizens have the right to free speech?
weird thing is reality is moving closer and closer to your pieces. I have to actually see it is your piece to tell the difference sometimes.
Keep setting your own agenda Sarah. Go where you want to Sarah. If the media doesn't like it, they can take a flying leap.
The sheer idiocy of these media leftists is astounding! Not a single solitary one of these socialist-loving, perverted, libtard propagandists has bothered to notice that they are falling all over each other to cover a woman they claim is one of the most ignorant and dangerously stupid people on the planet. They are covering her with as much interest and fervor as they do the O-hole, despite the fact that in their putrid minds, she is a joke; all the while they are too stupid to notice that she is proving how ignorant and clueless THEY truly are.
“...she shouldn’t be surprised if our coverage turns negative toward her.”
Oh please.... What an idiot.
The media thought they had destroyed Sarah. Now they are panicked.
Thought Sarah Palin was an irrelevant idiot, caribou Barbie etc.?
Hmm,
seems to me, a worthless target attracts no fire.
I really hate Semi News and Semi Satire. They are just too good. I don’t always look at the source of a story posted but I have been learning to be more careful before replying to a post.
Someone should call a SWAT team to CBS Headquarters because obviously in the newsroom some lunatic is holding a gun to the news director’s head AT THIS VERY MOMENT and forcing the CBS news director “Follow Palin’s bus tour at any cost!”.
Complaining about followi8ng Palin’s Bus tour is the only thing the media can do right now that doesn’t get the attention of the crazed gunman who is watching in the control room with their hostage the CBS News director.....
Obviously since this is about Palin there is some crazed gunman involved, because when it was about Plain in January all the major news outlets said the the crazed Gunman was obviously affiliated with Palin, I am just taking their “logical conclusion” and logically concluding it....
Won’t someone help them in the CBS News Room before the Crazed Gunman who is currently holding a gun to the News Director’s head makes them, I mean “forces” the poor little journalists out there to break more traffic laws.....
[the above post is dripping with sarcasm, and the poster is not saying there is an actual gunman in the CBS News HQ holding a gun to the News Director’s head, but someone may just want to check just to be safe.]
I think Rush Limbaugh accurately pointed out that the ones the Leftists ridicule and attack are the ones they're scared of. The ones they say are formidable are the ones they're not scared of. We're dealing with jackals here. Good to know. The more you know and realize about your enemy, the better. Unlike many, Palin gets it about these guys.
