add "media mogul" to the long line of jobs she's quit:
Sarah Palins views on America, politics, immigration and family values may not have been compelling enough to convince many people to fork over $10 per month.
Last summer, the conservative former governor of Alaska, ex-Fox News pundit and one-time U.S. VP candidate launched the Sarah Palin Channel, which she promised would deliver perspectives that cut through the medias politically correct filter.
But after one year, Palin is ending the subscription service. She announced in a July 4 post that her video content will be distributed free on her political action committees site and Facebook, on which she has 4.4 million followers. Effective August 1st, the governor will be making all of her content free on her Facebook page and at SarahPac.com, said a message posted on SarahPalinChannel.com.
With the change, Palin will end her partnership with Tapp, the online-video venture formed by Jeff Gaspin, former chairman of NBCUniversal Television, and Jon Klein, former president of CNN U.S.
