2010: The Year Sarah Palin Became Queen of All Media
By David Knowles - AOL NewsMove on over, Oprah. There's a new media queen in town. In a feat that may have seemed impossible at the conclusion of 2009, Sarah Palin became an even more visible national personality in 2010. After she and Republican presidential nominee John McCain lost the 2008 election by some 8 million votes to Barack Obama and Joe Biden, it may have seemed that Palin would simply fade out of the national spotlight and return to Alaska politics. And when Palin abruptly announced in July 2009 that she was quitting her job as Alaska's governor, little more than two years after being elected, many ...
Sarah Palin in a Little Rock Sam's Club: Signs Books, Ignores Media
By Suzi Parker - Politics DailyLITTLE ROCK, Ark. -- Sam's Club – the Walmart-owned megastore that sells almost everything in bulk – is hardly the epitome of glamour. So where does a superstar like Sarah Palin set up shop to sign books here? Amid the pallets of canned green beans? Behind the sea of poinsettias? Near the crates of toilet paper? Palin's choice: In the back of the store behind the frozen-food freezers. But her reception in Clinton – and Mike Huckabee – country was anything but chilly. More than 500 people lined up on a cold night here to meet Palin, who signed her new book, ...
Sarah Palin: 'We Gotta Stand With Our North Korean Allies'
By Steven Hoffer - AOL News
(Nov. 24) -- Who can keep track? On Wednesday, Sarah Palin weighed in on the recent military attacks by North Korea against South Korea. Appearing on fellow Fox News contributor Glenn Beck's radio show, for just a moment, her position didn't exactly fall in line with accepted U.S. foreign policy. "This speaks to a bigger picture here that certainly scares me in terms of our national security policy," Palin said. "But obviously we've gotta stand with our North Korean allies." To which the host replied: "South Korea." In all fairness, as a frequent public speaker, Palin is entitled to the ...

4 Highlights of Sarah Palin's 'America by Heart' Leaked Excerpts
By Steven Hoffer - AOL News(Nov. 18) -- The holidays have come early this year. Excerpts from Sarah Palin's new book, "America by Heart" -- scheduled to be released Nov. 23, just in time for the Black Friday holiday shopping spree -- leaked across the Internet this week.

Sarah Palin Bus Tour Hits Speed Bump With Private Jet Controversy
By Dana Chivvis - AOL NewsRogues, it seems, will be rogues: As she promotes her new book with an equally hyped down-home bus tour, former vice presidential candidate and Alaska governor Sarah Palin has been jetting to some stops on a Gulfstream II private jet, which rents for $4,000 an hour. According to the blog Palingates, which first reported the story, Palin took the plane on Nov. 21, 23 and 25 between book tour stops in Rochester, N.Y., Roanoke, Va., Fort Bragg, N.C., Birmingham, Ala., and Orlando, Fla. On Nov. 25, she then flew to Pasco, Wash., for Thanksgiving and was met at the airport by a bevy of journalists ...
Palin Book Attributes Leftist Native-American's Quote to UCLA's John Wooden
By David Sessions - Politics DailyChapter 3 of Sarah Palin's memoir, "Going Rogue: An American Life," begins with a quote that the book attributes to legendary UCLA basketball coach John Wooden: "Our land is everything to us. . . . I will tell you one of the things we remember on our land. We remember our grandfathers paid for it -- with their lives." But as The Huffington Post's Geoffrey Dunn reports, the quote is actually from John Wooden Legs, a Native American activist. The words come from the book "We Are the People: Voices From the Other Side of American History," an anthology of left-wing essays. The full quote reveals ...
