This is just embarrassing.

At this point, I'm pretty sure everyone understands that Sarah Palin is getting paid by Fox News to pontificate about the news and to obediently express her very predictable RNC talking points. So honestly, why would any self-respecting news org treat a paid Palin appearance on Fox as a news event? Why would any journalist dedicate 22 paragraphs to detailing the rhetoric of a paid pundit on a partisan cable news show?

What possible justification would ABC have for manufacturing GOP news like that?
