How long do you think Palin will last at FOX? |
|
She seems to have the attention span of a reasonably well behaved 12-year-old; I'd guess she lasts 6 months, maybe 8 tops.

20. I agree, it's kind of a nothing job |
|
She'll read a teleprompter from time to time doing "segments" when they feel a need to boost ratings by having people tune in just in case there's an on air train wreck.
It will be an easy pocketful of cash several times a year without putting any stress on her poor, fragile flower of a being.
She will not do interviews, be interviewed, or even be required to do happy talk. It will all be very carefully scripted in an attempt to avoid word salad and conclusive displays of profound ignorance.

2. As long as the big money rolls in. |
|
If she gets a better offer, well, then it's "Sarah-quitter" all over again.

6. She's a congenital idiot (which still leaves her smarter than Hannity). |
|
She'll be there as long as she can churn a buck for Boss Murdoch.

7. I'll be surprised if she sticks with it for any length of time. |
|
She has a long history of quitting things she starts since, well, college. She's always campaigning for something. When she was mayor she was campaigning for lieutenant governor; when she was on the oil and gas commission, she was campaigning for governor; when she was governor, she was campaigning for VP. How many times has it been announced that she's going to appear at some function and then she cancels?
It is her MO. She has a very short attention span.

8. She'll quit in a couple of months because only dead fish go with the flow |
|
Actually as long as a paychecks keep flowing and she has no responsibilities she'll be right at home. And who excels better at not taking responsibility then conservatives.

I think they will eventually give her |
|
her own show, from which she will launch her campaign for 2012 and Fox will shamelessly promote it.

17. The outtakes will be burned immediately |
|
Mrs. Palin will not have a "Fuck it, we'll do it live!" moment. Not that there won't be a shortage of material. My own feeling is that she'll tape six hours in the studio to produce five minutes' worth of commentary. The poor schmucks stuck in the booth while she's going on (and on and on and on) will be considering suicide: Most efficient, messiest, who should find their body, etc.

12. You have a point. She is very spoiled. She won't be able to cowl |
|
to a news format, even a fake one on Fox, forever. Although, if they let her rave like Glen "Clown" Beck, she could spose all kind of foolishness and that would suit her and FAUX wouldn't stop her.It would really ruin her, as it is Beck,but as long as they both made money. Neither one of them would care.

16. Long enough to get a following that will stay with her for her run for prez |
|
I should think other candidates would scream for equal time. Her motives are all Palin-oriented.

18. I give it four months |
|
By that time every production worker at Fox--from camera operators and directors to makeup artists and bookers--will have told Murdoch that if they have to work with Sarah Palin one more time they're going to quit.
This show is going to go through two phases. The first is when all the liberals will watch it to see how badly, and how often, Sarah Palin fucks up. After the liberals tune her out because, after all, you can only look at a trainwreck for so long before you realize it's never going to be anything else, the only people who will tune in are teabaggers--and there aren't enough of them to justify continuing to preempt those Shamwow commercials.

23. Remember, her dream job was to read a teleprompter on ESPN |
|
reading a teleprompter on FAUX is as close as she will ever get
I think she stays until early in 2011, when she announces that she is running for President,
If she doesn't run she will be there for decades. Nobody else would hire her.

She'll last as long as Rush lasted calling NFL Football.
She's a walking gaffe machine and I think she'll be gone in a week.
