Sarah Palin's media tour: next up, Fox News
The Sarah Palin media roll-out continues. After doing two days of interviews with ABC’s Charles Gibson, the Alaska governor will sit down with Fox News’ Sean Hannity next week.
It will be Palin’s second television interview since becoming the Republican vice presidential nominee and her first on cable television. The choice of Hannity, a conservative commentator, underscores her appeal to the party's base, which has been energized by her selection.
Hannity will interview Palin in Cincinnati on Tuesday, and portions of the interview will air on “Hannity & Colmes” that evening, as well as on Wednesday.
Meanwhile, Hannity’s colleague Greta Van Susteren landed an interview today with Palin’s husband, Todd. Their exchange will air on Van Susteren’s show “On the Record” on Monday and Tuesday.

Gee, what a shocker. Let's expect another lovefest by GOP enabler Sean Hannity, as he moons over this eminently unqualified candidate.

Whoa...Fox News, eh?! Who'll doing the questioning...Sean Hannity?
Sample question: "Your Execellency Vice-Presi...er...I mean Governor Palin --- as a patriotic, God-fearing American, I have been repulsed -- as I'm sure you have been, at the relentless attacks on you, your family, and of your stellar record by the Liberal Media(c) Elites.
Can you describe to me the trauma and pain this has caused your family and which I'm sure has also deeply pained the millions of decent, hardworking Americans across our wondrous country?

Can't wait for the Fox News interview questions. They'll probably track the headlines of the articles on Palin that Fox has been pumping out every two hours or so.
"How did you get to be so perfect?"
"You represent Everywoman, don't you?"
"Now, how close is Alaska to Russia? Much closer than Joe Biden's home state, isn't it?"
Here's what Fox News won't ask about (quote from another LA Times article):
"Alaskans receive almost twice as much per capita in earmark spending -- $506 -- as the second-ranking state, Hawaii."

Good America needs to know more about this great your woman!
If only we could know more about Obama!

Can't wait to hear the interview as we will all learn more. It appears most people who write in to this have already made up their minds and just post negative opinions. So much for listening and learning in search of finding out more. Too bad for them.
