NEWARK — Sarah Palin agreed in December to pay a New Jersey newspaper $15,000 to settle a lawsuit over her campaign's unauthorized use of an iconic photograph of firefighters hoisting the American flag on 9/11 -- but the deal remains stalled over the former GOP vice presidential candidate's insistence on confidentiality, according to court papers filed Monday in U.S. District Court.

According to the documents, William Dunnegan, the attorney for North Jersey Media Group, which publishes The Record of Bergen County, says that on Dec. 22, 2014 -- four days after the two sides agreed in principle to settle the case -- lawyers for SarahPac, Palin's campaign organization, "asserted that there must be a broad confidentiality clause."

"Shortly thereafter, Palin's counsel, Ronald Coleman, Esq., told me that Palin required a confidentiality clause because her political action committee did not want any hint of a compromise associated with her name," Dunnegan writes.

Dunnegan included with his filing several emails exchanged with Palin's lawyers regarding the settlement.

1. But she doesn't care if there's deadbeatery associated with her name.

because that's the republican way. Kill the IRS, shut down government, gridlock congress, don't pay your bills.

2. She'll still say she won the case.

And the rubes will believe her.

3. The newspaper should ax the deal and take her to court.

What a spectacle that would be!

4. Too late for confidentiality now

Sarah, honey, you don't have any reputation left to protect. Oh sure you have a few rubes who still send you money but they are going to do that no matter what you do or say- that is obvious at this point.
