How long do you think it's going to take for faux to have to fire Palin for her saying something

[jillan]

that really crosses the line?

My guess - 6 months.

[n2doc]

1. Never. It's what they are hoping for n/t

[Kingofalldems]

12. Agreed---the willfully ignorant love her and do not care what she says

[Hepburn]

2. Six weeks....

...she is an accident waiting to happen.

[lpbk2713]

3. She'll probably quit before Faux even thinks about firing her.

Failin never lasts long at anything.

[jillan]

5. lol - so true

[Liberal In Texas]

20. Agreed. She'll never complete her multi-year contract. n/t

[The_Commonist]

21. She'll never say anything...

...that isn't written out for her by people who are marginally smarter than she is.

[immoderate]

36. It'll be tough to find people that are marginally smarter than Palin...

who can write. Like a slice of lox is a bit brighter than Palin and not known for it's writing skills.

[racaulk]

22. That's so true!

:rofl:

[YOY]

4. She'll be reading off of cue cards.

But in such a way that it'll be painfully obvious...

Yes...she will be an extravaganza of fuck ups.

[OHdem10]

6. Since this is an opportunity for her to build her image and be

taken seriously, I think Fox will be sure she does not
make mistakes.

[Toucano]

7. Fox News doesn't work that way. There is no line for them. n/t

[lunatica]

8. Only if the rating go down. So never.

They've hit the jackpot with her. She's that proverbial train wreck no can stop watching. She's the person's who's headlights are freezing that deer which would be the audience. She's an accident waiting to happen any second. She's the cliffhanger at the end of the show. She's the boogey man waiting under the bed. You can't ignore her.

[napi21]

9. After all the insane thinks Oriley & Hannity have said over the years,

WHAT couuls Palin possibly say to get her fired? I guess if she called Murdock an AH & an idiot, that might do it, but I don't see her doing that.

[DeschutesRiver]

29. It will be policy issues that currently she refuses to address but that have some of her followers

worried. Apparently, she approves of a legal path to immigration for illegal immigrants. There has been major blowback on fundie boards about her support for this during the McCain campaign. Some try to excuse her for this by saying she was "forced" to follow the McCain party line. Others are not going for that - they say she has mentioned her approval of this on other occasions, and quite a few were coming out and saying that unless Sarah makes her position clear that she opposes a path for immigration, they won't support her or listen to her any further. They are suspicious enough that they aren't giving her any kind of pass on this - they want it clearly stated or she is finished in their books.

There are a couple other issues on which they suspect Palin doesn't support their crazy party line, but I can't recall what they were right now. I was just surprised to see the mumbling and outright dissing by them of their beloved "our Sarah". I hadn't thought she could do anything wrong in their eyes - but if her appearances on Faux bring out these positions, not only won't she be their candidate for any future high office, she also won't have a large devoted audience following her like Faux is hoping.

[hamsterjill]

10. She'll behave, I'm sure.

This is Sarah's dream job. A hairstylist, a wardrobe, and a forum where she can preach to an audience while someone else tells her what to say!

[SPedigrees]

15. All these perks didn't stop her from going rogue on the campaign trail.

But then again, Faux's standards are lower than the voting public.

[tsuki]

11. The Morlock has no lines to be crossed. nt

[no_hypocrisy]

13. If they won't fire Glenn Beck . . . . . ,

[jillan]

16. I actually think Palin is more clueless than Beck - and that says alot!

Seriously - how can any grown-up not know there is a North and South Korea? She is a total idiot!

[SPedigrees]

33. She thought Africa was a country. LOL that still cracks me up! nt

[rudy23]

14. Where could that line possibly be?

Glenn Beck is still on the air. She's probably there specifically to say things that would get her fired anywhere else.

[nevergiveup]

18. Compared to Beck, Sarah will seem sort of normal.

I can't believe I said that :blush:

[sharesunited]

17. Glenn Beck has paved the way very nicely for her. A sort of immunity standard.

[spinbaby]

19. Nonsense

They'll adore whatever stupid thing she says.

[Hekate]

23. It's a match made in heaven: Palin and FAUX both crave attention of any kind...

Of course Palin prefers blind adulation, which she will get from her fan base--that and lots of money, which she will get from FOX. The network, however, just seems to live for catapulting the propaganda--and Rupert already has lots of money so he can do whatever he wants.

[movonne]

24. I can't think of anything that faux would find over the line...every possible

lie that can be told has by faux....

[HopeHoops]

25. It will take 6 months for them to find ONE SENTENCE to air that makes any sense.

And I'm talking even for the rock-bottom standards on FOX.

[area51]

26. Why would they bother?

She's a quitter, and will probably quit to "spend more time with her family". :evilgrin:

[UTUSN]

27. K&R big #5 !1 n/t

[TransitJohn]

28. Glenn Beck is still there...my guess, never. n/t

n/t

[arthritisR_US]

30. my thoughts too! n/t

[upi402]

31. ...and the rest of the line up, for that matter. n/t

[librechik]

32. OBVIOUSLY Fox never fires anybody for saying somethingthat crosses the line

Palin has a job there as long as she wants it. Which probably won't be long, since not even God herself could satisfy that woman and she seems to just quit if she doesn't get every whim catered to.

[slackmaster]

34. About five minutes after they have her comment on a football game

:nuke:

[csziggy]

35. I hope she says something that is actionable in court

Something over the line in the way of slander so that she and Faux Noise AND Murdock can all be sued for asset they own. That would be so sweet.
