Former Gov. Sarah Palin of Alaska has signed on as a contributor to the Fox News Channel.
The network confirmed that Ms. Palin will appear on the networks programming on a regular basis as part of a multi-year deal. Financial terms were not disclosed.
Ms. Palin will not have her own regular program, one person familiar with the deal said, though she will host an occasional series that will run on the network from time to time. This person would not elaborate, but the network does have a precedent for such a series. Oliver L. North is the host of an occasionally running documentary series on the military called War Stories.
Many suspected that when Ms. Palin retired as the governor of Alaska last summer she was doing so to pursue some sort of career in television. The Fox News deal, however, would not seem to be all encompassing, and would appear to give her room for other pursuits, as well.

Me either.
Good call. :)
I would be THRILLED if they actually replace Huck’s show with Sarah.....his is about the only one I turn off!
The best part is when Fox’s ratings rise due to her appearances the libs will bitch and moan and be confused why it happened. (while they tune in to watch)
Sorry, I don't keep up with what he does.
Bad idea in my opinion.
Sounds like she will play kingmaker instead of going for the prize herself.
Huckabee has a regular show on Fox, in which he plays a guitar and sort of embarrasses himself.
And frankly, it’s kept him polling strong in likely 2012 candidates - I think this is a (very) good move for Palin, and for Fox.
That doesnt sound like declaring for the presidency to me.
I suppose the world has to be in black and white for you ,no grey area ‘eh
Sarah Palin Signs Multi-Year Deal With Fox News Channel"MULTI-year" deal?
who said Sarah wasn’t smart? oh yea the dumbazz libs..nice move Sarah~~~~
We'll see how it works for Palin.
Me, I got no cable.
Like Huckabee???
I don't have any heartburn over this as long as its occasional like Newt and several other politicans (Rudy also contributes on Fox occasionally, too). I would think otherwise if she hosted a program like the Huckster.
That doesnt sound like declaring for the presidency to me.
I suppose the world has to be all black and white for you. No grey area ‘eh
So, apparently there might be something to last summer’s rumors that the Palin’s were looking at real estate on Long Island.
Palin / Bachmann 2012 !!
Speaking of, wouldn't it be great if she were to sub for... say Beck or O'Reilly, and have Michelle on as a guest!
