Sarah Palin's bus tour treats reporters like paparazzi

Sarah Palin and her advisers are refusing to tell members of the media where she is going on her current bus tour - and the former Alaska governor seems to be enjoying the cat and mouse game that's resulted.
"I don't think I owe anything to the mainstream media ... I want them to have to do a little bit of work on a tour like this, and that would include not necessarily telling them beforehand where every stop's going to be," she told fellow Fox News employee Greta Van Susteren in an interview from the bus.
Yet the reemergence of the GOP's larger-than-life 2008 vice presidential candidate - who says she is strongly considering a run for president - is undeniably news. Which is why more than a dozen national news outlets have sent reporters and producers out to try and follow Palin.
Since Palin and her team won't share where the potential candidate is headed, reporters and producers have little choice but to simply stay close to Palin's bus. This has resulted in scenes of the Palin bus tooling down the highway followed by a caravan of 10 or 15 vehicles - including a massive CNN bus - all trying to make sure they don't lose sight of the Palin bus.
It adds up to a dangerous situation, says CBS News Producer Ryan Corsaro.

Palin's fault.
LOVE YA SARAH! (Oh, and if you get the chance, kick 'em in the teeth for me, too.)
Someone in the back of Palin’s bus should dump a bag of drywall nails on the highway; that’ll take care of the media pests!
Bravo Sarah!

Sarah Palin is a NATURAL BORN CITIZEN unlike Barry Soetoro aka Barack Hussein Obama.

Sounds like a movie:
Smoking Palin and the Bandits.

It ain’t “cat and mouse”.
It’s more like “buzz off, bozos”, you know, the kind of brush-off the head cheerleader gives to the creepy guys.
Why would you follow a stupid person who doesn’t matter anyway everywhere she goes?
I like the nails idea!
Yeah, you just keep dissin’ them, to give them a taste of their own medicine...
The MSM has dissed the entire U.S. of A, by not giving us the real news and for not understanding what “freedom of the press” is all about. The MSM is like TMZ these days...
They act as such and should so be treated.
Finally, someone’s had the guts to punch the bully and leave him bleeding on the playground.
“It adds up to a dangerous situation, says CBS News Producer Ryan Corsaro.”
Women, children, and minorities at greatest risk.
The only danger here is that CBS et al may lose control of the discussion.
Giving the LSM a dose of their own medicine! You go girl!
Make it 51:8
“It adds up to a dangerous situation, says CBS News Producer Ryan Corsaro.:”
Then tell the MSM morons to BACK OFF!
“But, what’s really dangerous is that she just might get enough people to vote for her as president”
MSM ‘thought’ mode!
:0)
This reminds me of the chase scene from “It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World.”
Palin didn't announce the tour to the media or invite them.
She is just a private citizen who is taking her family on a tour of historic sites in a bus and told her three million closest friends about it.
I’d like to hear her say
“look, you guys have acted like an enemy propaganda organ for about 30 years now, so why would I treat you differently?”
Hilarious. The MSM can screw. No one cares what their opinions are of Palins junket. We already know what they have to say.
Remember, she went to school to become a reporter so she knows how to play them like a cheap volin. I hope they get lost in some back road so they can see what the REAL UNITED STATES is like!! Don’t think the media could report anything like that however, they do not have the skill, ability or training.
