After the first year, the merely curios will leave.

After the second year, teabaggers will start to leave in droves.

After the third year, only hardcore fans of Sara Palin herself will stay on and there aren't enough of those to keep the channel on the profitable side.

Why does an uneducated person get to become successful for doing nothing, but somebody who works extremely hard providing for their family can't even have the basics to live. It is just very unfair.

I give it 3 months. But no one has to pay at all if the late night shows continously give us the highlights.

shell out the whole amount, if Palin were smart. Well, she's NOT smart, but she does know how to con people out of money. She will probably make them pay all at once. I remember the ratings were sky high for the first episode of that heinous little "reality show" she "starred" in, but ratings plummeted in subsequent weeks. I suspect the same thing will happen with this little adventure in grifting.

can sign up and have a 'channel' dedicated on this site. It is a service they hope to sell to entertainers and others in the public eye as a cheap and easy way to communicate more directly with hard core fans, which is a way of saying to exploit a fan base more fully.
She's not paying for it, she was offered the first 'channel' because the makers thought she'd bring them lots of publicity, but they should have picked a mid level pop star for their demonstration drive....
