After a three-year run as a paid contributor to the nations highest-rated cable news channel, Sarah Palin and FOX News have cut ties, according to a source close to the former Alaska governor.
Its my understanding that Gov. Palin was offered a contract by FOX, and she decided not to renew the arrangement, the source close to Palin told RCP. She remains focused on broadening her message of common-sense conservatism across the country and will be expanding her voice in the national discussion.
The source declined to say whether Palin would pursue a television contract with another news network, such as CNN.
After resigning as governor in 2009, Palin became one of FOX News marquee on-air assets, appearing frequently across its programming and often generating headlines for her memorable and characteristically provocative commentary.
In 2010, FOX News constructed a studio inside Palins Wasilla, Alaska, home where her husband Todd would sometimes act as cameraman and producer during her live television appearances.
Palins relationship with FOX appeared to take several rocky turns. In a Facebook post during the Republican convention last August, for instance, the 2008 Republican vice-presidential nominee lamented that the news channel had cancelled all my scheduled interviews tonight.
A spokesperson for FOX did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Palin MUST be at the top of ticket.
VP? Allen West!
Please add me to your Palin list, onyx, I believe things are looking up.
Did she appear on Fox enough to even justify a contract in the first place?
This is exciting news....just not sure why I’m so happy about it!
Roger Ailes done been shooting *his-self* in the foot pretty regular lately and Faux is limping bad.
Now she won't have to sit and listen to the Corporate PC crap at Faux News! That stifle what she can and cannot say
The GOP and it's establishment is just as much our enemy as the Democrats are.
If you aren't convenience look up who has stood up to Ubama these past Four Years, the GOP or the Tea Party?
Enjoy Dennis Kucinich Suckers!
Delighted!
Thanks very much, jazusamo!!!
You’re On Sarah’s List!
One problem with that combo. Palin has actually won an election. Keyes hasn’t. And the only thing Keyes has run is his mouth.
Strange isn’t it that if you “resign” you are leaving and yet if you do NOT “re sign” you also leaving? One could say, “I am not going to re-sign and I am going to resign.” How does anybody ever learn English?
I’m glad she left FoxNews! It’s nothing but a RINO fear network and they treated her like crap at times
LOL. I’m not sure why either, but Fox has too many libtards and I didn’t like the shabby treatment she received “behind her back” but on the air, from the mouths of lesser’s like Juan Williams, BOR, Hume and others.
Let’s GO!
Where have you been? Sarah was on Hannity and Greta almost weekly for awhile in the past two years and also did favors for FOX business network by doing multiple interviews.
I plan on increasing my amount in the future. So I can become a Dollar a day member, but for now I can do this.
I apologize for not being a dollar a day member now but I just shot my wad with some Car repairs that totaled....several Hundred Dollars.
Anyway G-d Bless Free Republic!
Go Tea Party!
Go Sarah!!!
Fox is not a RINO network because Fox never claimed to be “republican”. Fox News is and always has been center and non-partisan.
We should never play into the hands of the left by calling what is “center” to be pro-republican because in the eyes of the left “republican”= far right even if it’s Sue Collins.
The left loves to tag anything center as far right because they are trying to move “center” leftward.
It was the left who started with this Fox News = Republican. I suppose it’s easy to think that when you look at the alternative far left Clinton loving MSM.
I don’t watch TV news that much but when I do it’s Fox and not MSNBC that I watch and when I do watch them I never think to myself that they are at all a republican network.
Thank you very much, KC_Lion!!

Puh-leeze. He lost me on the border fence fiasco. He revealed himself to be a con artist.
I haven’t watched Fox in eons. I only watch the videos posted here when Greta has Sarah on.
