Where is Britney Spears when Sarah Palin needs her?

As Sarah Palin is learning the news media is a tricky beast when the celebrity is not used to it. Just ask Britney Spears who has taken several years to learn how to manage her public image without showing up on every gossip column every night. Just check out here new web site.





According to Yahoo, “Palin hits the airwaves”:
"...You know questions about well, you know, 'what do you read up there in Alaska?' To me that was kind, a little bit annoying because I'm like, you know, 'what do you mean what do I read up in Alaska? I read the same things that you guys read in New York and there in L.A. and in Washington state. What do you mean, what do I read up there?'"
Palin expanded on the incident on "Larry King Live," responding to his question about whether she should have done the Couric interview in the first place:
"There was nothing off-base, unfair about [the Couric interview]. Certainly, I should have done the interview. To attribute that interview to any kind of negativity in the campaign or a downfall in the campaign, I think it's ridiculous.
"I would have greater respect, though, for the entire profession called mainstream media if we could have great assurance that there's fairness, that there's objectivity throughout the reporting world..."
Yes it’s a cruel world for celebrities, political or in the entertainment industries. But that’s part of being a celebrity and Palin needs to get used to it. She’s hard to the right, so some of us are going to attack her relentlessly whenever we can. If she can’t take the heat she should go back to chasing polar bears and leave the politics to the rest of us.
