Ashley "Wolf Song Deer Walker" Judd, who is taking on Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin and her support for aerial wolf hunting, is taking her fight prime time.

Judd told Women on the Web that because of the huge amount of attention she got for the video she filmed for Defenders of Wildlife, blasting Palin and the hunting practices, she's going to appear on CNN's "Larry King Live" at 9 p.m. ET tonight with Defenders CEO Rodger Schlickeisen. So far, that's the only media request she is granting. You can e-mail your questions to Judd here.

"At first I said no to all requests, and boy, have they been rolling in," Judd wrote to wOw.

She's hoping that with Schlickeisen by her side, the focus will be more on the group's ambitions, and less on her star power. Click here to read the whole story.

Palin has shot back at Judd and the "extreme fringe" wildlife group, calling their actions "reprehensible and hypocritical" and "a fundraising tool to deceive Americans into parting with their hard-earned money." Palin says Defenders just doesn't understand how life in Alaska works. Maybe they should pay her a visit?

Our New Approach to Comments

In an effort to encourage the same level of civil dialogue among Politics Daily’s readers that we expect of our writers – a “civilogue,” to use the term coined by PD’s Jeffrey Weiss – we are requiring commenters to use their AOL or AIM screen names to submit a comment, and we are reading all comments before publishing them. Personal attacks (on writers, other readers, Nancy Pelosi, George W. Bush, or anyone at all) and comments that are not productive additions to the conversation will not be published, period, to make room for a discussion among those with ideas to kick around. Please read our Help and Feedback section for more info.
