Sarah Palin Quits Fox News

Via Yahoo News

Fox News Channel is parting ways with former Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin, ending her three-year tenure as a contributor on the network.

[..]

There were some indications of tension between her and Fox News Chairman Roger Ailes, who was quoted in a 2011 story by The Associated Press saying, “I hired Sarah Palin because she was hot and got ratings.”

When Palin announced she would not be a candidate in 2012, she said it on a conservative radio show, which didn’t sit well with the company paying her to be a contributor. Palin took to her Facebook page late last summer to complain that Fox had cancelled her appearances one night at the GOP national convention; Fox said it was simply because the GOP had to condense its speaker schedule due to a hurricane.

Four years removed from her vice presidential candidacy, Palin’s influence had waned and she was somewhat overshadowed as a contributor at Fox by Karl Rove, former President George W. Bush’s top political aide. Rove recently renewed his contract at Fox through the 2016 election.

Via Freedom’s Lighthouse and Fox Nation, former President Bill Clinton was on the O’Reilly Factor last night where host Bill O’Reilly and the former President had an awesome interview. This interview with Barney Frank still ranks as my favorite O’Reilly moment.

Brian at Freedom’s Lighthouse writes:

O’Reilly asked Clinton questions ranging from the “Class Warfare” rhetoric of the Obama Administration, to how the media favored Obama over his wife, Hillary in the 2008 Democrat Presidential Nomination race. Clinton admitted the media did favor Obama over Hillary, but would not go any further. It was clear that Clinton was being very guarded about what he said concerning Barack Obama, since Hillary is serving as Secretary of State.

I have to say, compared to Barack Obama, Bill Clinton is like a breath of fresh air! I never thought I would feel that way about him, but three years of “The One” will do that to you. I’d love to hear Bill Clinton really say what he thinks of Obama!

I agree wholeheartedly. Even though I disagree with Clinton as ardently as I disagree with the President on a host of issues, he speaks like a President should.
