Before posting this video, my co-editors and I detected what we heard as someone saying the word zealot in the above video at 1:34 while the Governor was speaking. We verified the separate version of the video posted at RightScoop by asking the site owner and they heard it there as well.
It has now hit Twitter and Jedediah Bila says it best: What .The. Hell.
Absolutely unbelievable. I am no expert on microphone or feedback issues. But, I do know that two completely separate versions of the video (ours from SarahNet and the version RS put up) both have the soundbite at the exact same time mark.
Coincidentally, this happened a couple hours after Governor Palin went on to talk with Mark Levin about certain party bosses trying to strip power away from the grassroots.
Apparently some over at Fox News are so protective of Chris Christie, that an innocent got to that point comment on his speech was enough for someone over there to refer to Governor Palin as a zealot. Whoever said it will probably go on unknown and given their reporting throughout the entire primary process, I cannot say we can expect Fox News to come forward and offer the Governor an apology.
But they still owe her one. Whatever their problem is, this was a completely unprofessional move by Fox News. Enough is enough!
Update by Stacy: Im currently trying to find a better email address to send in complaints but for now, you can go here to let Fox know how you feel about this: foxnewstips@foxnews.com
On Twitter you can go to: @foxnews Or contact Bret Baier (@BretBaier), Megyn Kelly (@megynkelly), or Brit Hume (@Kimsfirst)

Let it go, man. Let it go.
I am so glad to find the place to comment. Every time Peggy Noonan comes on to “analyze” I want to ask why she is a good one to listen to. The way she shakes her head while she speaks makes her appear to have a condition. I think the condition is cluelessness.
Mitt’s own “Dreams from My Father”.
Wow! Good find, dude!
The voice sounds a whole lot like Brit Hume if you ask me.
Let what go, exactly?
This is silly. You think you hear zealot because you’ve been told to hear zealot.
Give me a few and I’ll have a photo of George Romney Shaking hands with Saul Alinsky when they met to discuss “solving” the problems of Detroit.
It’s even sillier than that without knowing the context. You would think someone had said the b word.
Since when is “zealot” a bad word?
I personally have about had it with Martha MacCallum (sp?)on Fox. She lied last week about Planned Parenthood and I know I heard her say this morning something disparaging about Ann Romney. Martha was describing Mrs. Romney’s speech about their struggling early on and said something to the affect of ‘that’s what she believes’. I was like what??? She said it very snarky.
Exactly. I would wear that word as a badge of honor.
What’s wrong with being called a ‘zealot’?
I consider myself a ‘zealot’, and proudly so.
If Sarah is a ‘zealot’ for freedom, liberty and conservatism, then that’s great!
We need more and more like her.
Can anyone imagine anybody in the GOP-e being called a ‘zealot’. For the Status Quo maybe.............
‘Quisling’ is a growing disease. The infection has reached every network airing in America. Until the main vector is removed and the site treated with antiseptic TRUTH, this disease threatens to end The Republic for which they used to stand.
More at buzzfeed.
Yours is the correct analysis.
Alinsky rules:
Ridicule. that is the only attack with no defense.
see post #11.
there’s no there there.
this is all paranoid nonsense and a waste of our outrage. lets find something else to fight against.
