Reuters "Reports" Sarah Palin's Speech Before She Gives It [Journalismism]
Presumably, Reuters's coverage of the forthcoming Republican convention address by Sarah Palin is based on a pre-distributed written version of the speech, and that's why the report at left was posted at least an hour ago. But shouldn't the future tense be employed, or a dislaimer be included, given that the speech hasn't, you know, occurred yet? Wrote the newswire of John McCain's running mate: "Sarah Palin touted her small-town roots and swiped at Democrat Barack Obama during a highly anticipated speech t

Sarah Palin May Be Broke, But She’s Not Flat Busted (or Chested)
This t-shirt from Sarah Palin flaunts her chest saying “I May Be Broke, But I’m Not Flat Busted” Yes, Sarah, we know. And we’re so glad that you’ve come along to spice this political season up a bit.

The World from Berlin: 'Sarah Palin Will Cost the Republican Party Dearly'
Sarah Palin is a fresh-faced fishing and hunting wild card in the US presidential race. She just might be able to lure the media away from Obama. But can she attract enough voters from the Right to make up for those she might lose McCain in the Center? Who is Sarah Palin? More importantly, what does McCain's pick for vice president think or know about foreign policy? Even after her speech at Wednesday's Republican National Convention she remains both a mystery and a subject of intense curiosity.

Sarah Palin On Cover Of US Magazine
Is this effed up?The new Us Weekly magazine cover features Republican Vice Presidential candidate, Sarah Palin, with the headline, "Babies, Lies & Scandal."As you can imagine (and as Us is probably banking on), the issue is already causing controversy. No surprise that the response from Camp McCain/Palin isn't positive, especially since a recent issue of Us featured a picture of Barack and Michelle Obama with the headline, "Why Barack Loves Her." Wonder who the Us Weekly top editors are voting for?Supp

And Now, A Word on Sarah Palin From Noted Political Pundit Lindsay Lohan
While all of Hollywood waits with bated breath to hear the reaction to VP pick Sarah Palin from the only actress who matters — her doppleganger, Tina Fey — headline-friendly Lindsay Lohan has decided to wade into the political waters, spouting off her own, unsolicited thoughts on the matter from her Myspace celebrity blog. Now that Palin has revealed that her 17-year-old daughter Bristol is pregnant, she's become fair game for the Us Weekly set (indeed, she's snagged that cover as well as the fr

Pundits Agree: Sarah Palin is a Freakin' Supernova
Sarah Palin bashed Barack Obama, which most pundits didn't expect, or advise. She also lobbed some decent punchlines at the talking head class, and for that, we appreciate her. But how did the folks who are paid to over-analyze these type of things, and who were on The Receiving End of her taunts, respond to her words? MSNBC's Keith Olbermann: "People who like this sort of thing will find this the sort of thing they like." MSNBC's Chris Matthews: "At no time, during her entir

Sarah Palin is the New John Edwards, Wishes the National Enquirer
Weren't you just thinking the other day how this Sarah Palin's teenage daughter Bristol's pregnancy scandal was totally to September what John Edwards and Rielle Hunter's love-baby was to August? Too bad, it's not. There is a so, so much salaciously better rumor about the former beauty queen and her sexcapades that is going down. The National Enquirer wants any fans of the Edwards/Hunter and Palin scandals to please step forward, because do they have a scoop for you: Yesterday,

The BBC Underdoes Sarah Palin
THE PAIN FOR Palin. Sarah Palin(Did I mention she has a pregnant unmarried 17 year old daughter?) has given a wonderful speech at the RNC and the BBC are most unhappy about it. I caught James Naughtie being interviewed about it at 6.35am this morning on Today and all he could observe was that by Palin (Did I mention she has a pregnant unmarried 17 year old daughter?) going for Obama - the Chosen One - she now left herself open to attack by Obama. Seriously!! As if the orchestrated and frenzied attacks on Sa

Dr. Laura has something to say!
I am extremely disappointed in the choice of Sarah Palin as the Vice Presidential candidate of the Republican Party. I will still vote for Senator McCain, because I am very concerned about having a fundamental leftist, especially one who is a marvelous orator, as President. At first, I thought it amusing that McCain picked a pretty, smart, and tough female to counter the racist/sexist accusations going back and forth between parties. I remember how Oprah Winfrey got caught in the cross-fire as she step

Well, there’s the little matter of a hurricane mop-up to attend to and, um, the fact that he’s pretty much the most unpopular president in history.

John McCain's age: No issue, until now
The decision of the 72-year-old Arizona senator, who stands to become the oldest American elected to a first term as president, to tap a 44-year-old running mate, Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, risks accentuating questions of age and experience on the Republican ticket, political analysts say. With voters already somewhat wary of electing older candidates, Palin's relative lack of experience and McCain's age could jointly serve as reminders of mortality, with a first-term governor of a small state first in line

With rousing convention speech, Palin becomes a force in McCain candidacy
Normally, vice-presidential nominees don’t end up swinging the outcome of a presidential race, political scientists like to say. It’s the top of the ticket that nearly all voters base their decisions on. But this is a year in which a running mate – Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, the No. 2 to GOP nominee John McCain – could make a difference. She has burst onto the national stage with such force, casting Senator McCain in a whole new light, that most engaged voters can’t help but have an opi

Palin Had Affair, Says Enquirer
Just as Sarah Palin was preparing to speak at the Republican convention in St. Paul (more on that momentarily), word bubbled up that the National Enquirer alleged in its print edition that John McCain's running mate had an affair with a business partner to her husband. With the sensational charge, the supermarket tabloid is gambling the measure of respect it has earned from more buttoned-down media in the wake of its reporting on John Edwards's affair with a campaign staffer, which was partially admitted to
