It seems that Sarah Palin cannot escape the constant criticism from the media. Right now the media is Palin's biggest competitor she must overcome if she wants to run for President in 4 years.
It amazing to see in our society how powerful the media can be. When Palin was first announced as McCain's running mate, she received so much attention because everyone was fascinated in discovering who she was. At first, the McCain team loved all the attention she was getting and thought this could really boost their popularity in the election. Boy did it come back and bite them in the ass!
Soon Palin was receiving too much attention... too much negative attention. She was soon becoming accountable for every word she said publicly. The criticism of her intelligence and lack of experience she had the political field. Her family life was getting pried into at a crucial and private time for her family.
The ever so popular SNL skits depicted by Tiny Fea didn't help either. Even though Palin appeared on the show, the truth of the matter was that the underlined message of all the skits where attacking her lack of intelligence and incapability of holding office.
So where does Palin stand now? After McCain lost the election, Palin finally tried to fight back and accuse the media for destroying her imagine. Can you blame her? Palin was able to slip under the radar for a while, but she made headlines when she stepped down as Alaska's Governor. It seems Palin may begin preparing for the next election a bit early, but she may need all the help she can get.
Palin con tines to get destroyed by the media. It does not help when the father of your grandchild continues to go in front of the media and bash you. Comedians like David Letterman and Kathy Griffin love to fuel the fire about Palin's incapability of being in politics.
Palin is set to release a book called "Going Rogue" this month and will embark on a book tour soon. With this book, I am sure she is hoping to regain supporters and receive some positive press.
The real question is will her efforts be able to save her from the media if she runs in the next election OR has the media already destroyed her image? Only time can tell...
