Why does the WSJ print Sarah Palin on editorial page?

[kentuck]

She is a rambling idiot. It is very doubtful that she even wrote it? According to the talking heads on MSNBC this morning, there was only one paragraph about health care reform and it was something about "vouchers". How much longer are they going to pay attention to this fraudulent diva?

1. Because it's owned by Ruppert Murdock

[el_bryanto]

5. Yes before the appearance of Ruppert Murdoch the Wall Street Editorial page

was not a bastion of right wing punditry, giving space to Rush Limbaugh repeatedly, who is at least as qualified as Palin.

Yeah it's all Murdoch's fault.

19. You are right, editorial pages were always crazy. News reporting was good, Murdoch ruined that n/t

[HopeHoops]

2. MURDOCH

Doesn't he sort of remind you of Emperor Palpatine?

[Common Sense Party]

3. They don't have a comics page. n/t

[asdjrocky]

4. The personal escort ad page was full.

6. Murdoch

Her youngest daughter could probably write a better editorial than Sarah.

[daa]

7. Show me her high school diploma! nt

[ThomWV]

8. I dunno, maybe because they don't have a baby-seal-clubbing Page?

[spanone]

9. because the wall street urinal is no better than faux news

[Raschel]

10. No more room on the comics page?

11. We don't believe that it's even Sarah Palin writing these editorials.

See The Mudflats here: Palin Puppet Show http://www.themudflats.net/2009/09/09/palin-puppet-show/

and The Immoral Minority here: Sarah Palin's Ghostwriter has graduated from writing for a handful of sycophants on Facebook to trying his/her luck with the WSJ http://theimmoralminority.blogspot.com/ (third story down)

None of this recent writing sounds anything like Sarah Palin. She's a puppet of the worst kind.

13. wsj is giving her 'gravitas'

[Blue_In_AK]

14. They're trying awfully hard,

but failing miserably. If she knows so much about health care reform, why doesn't she crawl out from under her rock and make a public appearance? No one here has seen her in weeks. Even her own father has stated he doesn't know where she is, just that she's somewhere "writing her memoirs." Is she in detox, a mental ward, having some "work" done, what? Someone needs to blow her cover.

15. Except her base doesn't read the WSJ and they think gravitas

is that weird food socialist Swedish people eat.


Can Murdoch POSSIBLY imagine he's going to expand her appeal with ghostwritten op eds?? Pffft!

[Blue_In_AK]

18. I was thinking that they thought "gravitas"

was that force that holds us onto the planet, but then I remembered that they don't believe in science.

[Brickbat]

16. Most op-eds that carry politicians' bylines aren't written by the actual politician. It's just a lot

more noticeable when you see complete sentences attributed to Palin.

[omega minimo]

12. The Wasilla Street Journal?

:shrug:

[Cha]

17. Because they like losers who

foam at the mouth against Democracy.

[Swamp Rat]

20. WSJ = crappy toilet paper

[Blue For You]

21. The WSJ beckons, and Esther dances for the crowd.
