Sarah Palin's Program is NOT Reality TV
November 15, 2010 | This Just In

Posted on 11/15/2010 11:38:17 AM PST by This Just In

I am confident that by now, you have all read about Sarah Palin's Alaska program. I'm also confident that you have all been witness to the MSM's overtime/overkill effort to destroy Sarah Palin's reputation.

One of the barrage of tactics the MSM has been resorting to is to brand Sarah Palin's Alaska as a "reality tv" show. Some of your have been guilty of assisting the MSM by posting stories which include the description of this particular show as being a "reality" program.

I would like to encourage all my fellow Freepers out there to call the show what it really is; a travel program. Let us refrain from helping the MSM in their consumed desire to destroy the Palin family's reputation and political endeavors.

Whatever dude. Hunter’s ratings from unions, aside from aerospace/defense workers are abysmal. particularly from the SEIU, the NEA and other white collar criminals. While his COC and small business ratings are sky high.

You’re just poorly informed. As usual.

Yes it was awesome...
The family intimacy and conversations...do indicate it is a reality show. There is nothing wrong with that.
I do not think it is a documentary.

Its a stupid show and a really dumb PR stunt imo.

Yet, it broke viewing records for TLC.

If the Obama's had something like this going on in 2007 everyone would be saying the exact same thing.

You mean a show where we watch The Obama's eat ice cream?

And Barry golfing while Michelle goes on spending sprees.

Would you have watched it? (of course, it's shoved in our faces now, but I am talking about way back before he became the first foreign president)

I want people to see Alaska for its beauty but also the dangers, like when a family on a deserted highway breaks down in -45 temps and the State Troopers find them two days later dead. The stories of boom and bust, how the small mom and pop stores were all but eradicated in the last ten years by the big box stores. How a decent enclosed mall was demolished literally within a week without even removing anything of value all in the hurry to build a Target store, a Sports Authority and a few other strip mall places that most people just hate and won’t shop there.

Unfortunately, most people DON'T want to see what you describe.

THEY WATCH TV BECAUSE THEY WANT HAPPY ENDINGS. And they want it by the end of the show. Or else, they don't watch.

Could we just vote the island into non-existence?

They already had that show. It was called "LOST".

pissant’s views are well-known. I want to see what has given you your “well-known” impression of me.

Oh, come on!

Everyone 'knows' that you and pissant are:

Hard-headed.
Thick-skulled.
Obstinate.
Think you know it all.
Very blunt.
Controversial.
Think 'out of the box'.
Assumed to be 'nuts'.

AND FRANKLY SPEAKING (or HONESTLY or whatever misused phrase works best) I am tired of you two being crowned as the leaders in this area.

I have been fighting for recognition for a long time, and yet you guys are just 'deemed' the winners.

I bet you rigged the voting. Or you bribed JR.

: )

Not all reality shows are bad.

As long as they got some partial nudity in them.

The husband looked castrated.

Why? Because he was silent?

Maybe he's not an egotistical ***hole who thinks everything is about him.

Oh for God’s sakes you’re repulsive.

I see no need to bring God into this, to start with. I can also assure you I am not repulsive. I'm not ignorant either, which means that, unlike you, I have read and agreed to the rules of the forum. Each time you post you are reminded "NO personal attacks".

You failed to say anything at all on topic. You failed to adhere to the rules of the forum. You took God's name in vain. Maybe you should go display your lack of manners at Democratic Underground.

Everyone posts short rude personal attacks there from what I've heard.

While we are at it, the wording “God’s sakes” is grammatically incorrect.

Good for them. Unfortunately for palin, people are going to see this as “jumping the shark”.

Actually I enjoy Gene’s show.

Ozzy, well in small doses it was funny, but I can’t stand listening to Ozzy talk, it’s like listening to a garbage disposal with an English accent.

Darling you posted a personal attack on Bristol Palin doing DWTS on a thread about Sarah Palin’s TV show. So, in short, you haven’t got a leg to stand on in criticizing me. So, why don’t you bugger off to DU and bash Bristol there? I’m sure you’ll fit right in. And you’re little friend too. ITCANSEE?

PDS’ers. A day late and six eggs short of a dozen.

Now go play on another thread. I’m done with you.

You didn't spell that correctly either.

PLUS, it is considered common courtesy to PING a poster if you mention them in your post.

Your assumption that I don't like Sarah Palin, just because I teased you about 'GOD'S SAKES', is completely erroneous. You shouldn't let some friendly ribbing interfere with the conversation.

Well, nowhere else have I read any comments from ANYONE who thinks this was jumping the shark.

If you wish to see it this way, that is your choice. I guess time will tell.
