Former U.S. vice presidential candidate, governor, best-selling author and original “Mama Grizzly” Sarah Palin returns to series television on Sportsman Channel to host a new show – the first part of the network’s “Red, Wild & Blue America” programming plan – for the fast-growing outdoor lifestyle network. Titled “Amazing America with Sarah Palin,” the weekly series will premiere in April 2014. The announcement was made today by Gavin Harvey, CEO of Sportsman Channel.
Amazing America with Sarah Palin is an anthology of stories that explore some of the most original, interesting – and sometimes inspiring – people, places and pastimes connected to America’s outdoors lifestyle. Governor Palin takes viewers coast-to-coast into what Sportsman Channel calls “Red, Wild and Blue America” – where the American Spirit and the Great Outdoors are celebrated in equal measure. From everyday people to business leaders and celebrities; in cities, suburbs and towns; the leader of the “Status Go” movement – Palin – will find the stories of people and places that share and reflect her passion for what makes America the great, amazing nation that it is.
"I'm excited to help shine a light on all the great American sportsmen and women in the country who live the outdoors lifestyle," said Sarah Palin, host of Amazing America with Sarah Palin. "Sportsman Channel is the leader in their industry and I am thrilled to be partnering with them on this show."
“Governor Palin is one of America’s most popular leaders, whose powerful love of country and passion for the great outdoors is inspiring to millions and millions of people,” said Gavin Harvey, CEO of Sportsman Channel. “As a sportswoman, humanitarian, and patriot who has visited every corner of the USA, there is no one more qualified to host Amazing America than Sarah Palin.”
Palin has been a dynamic figure in the media since her run in 2008 as Senator John McCain’s vice presidential running mate. She is a three-time New York Times best-selling author (Going Rogue, America By Heart and Good Tidings and Great Joy), generated almost 100 million Google hits and has nearly five million organic and engaged social media followers. Time Magazine also has named her as one of the “100 Most Influential People in the World” (2009, 2010). Governor Palin has been married to four-time Iron Dog champion Todd Palin for 25 years. They reside in Wasilla, Alaska, and have five children and two grandchildren.

I can’t wait. LOVE Palin adn LOVE the outdoors!!!
Thanks
Except she’s starting to look like she needs to eat a couple Quarter pounders. Runners sometimes look gaunt and she’s gettin’ there. May be tough to pack a moose out of the back country being that lean. But maybe that’s what Todd’s for. LOL!
Which cable providers broadcast “Sportman’s Channel”?
I hope it becomes for her what “Death Valley Days” was for Ronald Reagan
I wonder if democrats will complain endlessly about this, and will come up with all sorts of new derogatory comments?
Ping!
Sarah would be great at the EPA...
Great thought. THAT was one of my favorites too!

All her friends will have big game rifles.

2014 is a very important election year. Sarah just arranged to travel all over America (while getting paid a bunch) meeting and greeting people who love America.
That sure beats having to raise money from shysters to get exposure.
She is the smartest politician of our times.
Neat! But dang, I just got rid of my dish.
This sounds great.
Good for her. I hope she makes tons of money.

When a major party candidate can get elected to anything (R or D) without taking money from shysters, that will signal a significant change in electoral realities. It will not be a reality in the next several election cycles. JMO.
In your estimation, will she be raising money to run for something herself, or is this so she can spread the wealth around to others?

I have been buying 20 Mule Team Borax for years and every time I make a purchase, I think of Mr. Reagan. Yes, hopefully this show will do the same for Mrs. Palin.
Sarah doesn’t have to sweat the details. She just needs to show the way. People will get on board. It won’t be individuals getting promoted as much as her pointing the direction back to the real USA.
The US is in a dark scary forest. It needs a beacon to help find its way. That is Sarah’s destiny.
