Sarah Palin not fit for TV…Unless it’s Fox News

Last week, Prospere Magazine asked readers what they thought of Fox News’ offer to Sarah Palin, making her a commentator.  Out of those who participated, 40% believed that she was an excellent pick for Fox News, considering her politics;  30% believed that it was a crazy idea (even for Fox News), since she can’t get [...]

Lack of Exposure, Just Like Me Syndrome or Something More?

Cynthia Cheng

The Jezebel and Big Bad Baby Names (registration required to read this board) posts about the “racist” KFC ads in Australia have me thinking.  Is the very reason that American commenters not understanding the fact that Australians did not see the ad as racist a misunderstanding or something else (just a backgrounder: the KFC [...]

Cynthia on Sarah Palin’s Book Tour

As everyone knows, Sarah Palin recently published her book, Going Rogue.  At an upcoming appearance, officials have set guidelines for the press, including prohibiting non-English speaking press (they also said no foreign press – interesting, since there are many foreign media who ARE English-speaking, just like many American media which are NON-English-speaking).  However, I *AM* [...]

Celebrity Baby Names: the Good, the Bad, the Ugly

 Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner announced their new daughter’s name earlier this week as Seraphina Rose Elizabeth. Personally, I think it’s a mouthful and Seraphina doesn’t go all that well with Affleck (and is much fancier than Violet, the name of Afflecks’ older daughter).  However, this little girl’s name is definitely much better than many other [...]

Poll Results: $150K on Clothes and the Lack of Seriousness- Yep, Diva

Last week, Prospere Magazine asked: There are reports which have called Sarah Palin a “diva.”  Do you think she is one?
When it comes to her clothes, a quarter of you believe that Sarah Palin is a diva based on the amount of money spent on the threads.  Seriously, $150,000 is a lot of money!  That’s [...]

Madison McCulloch

On August 29 John McCain announced that he had chosen Palin as his running mate [...]

Poll of the Week: Is Sarah Palin a Diva?

Poll Results: Some Believe Being “Folksy” is OK, While Others Disagree

Last week’s question: Sarah Palin has been criticized by the public as being “too folksy.” Do you think politicians need to be more like “regular folks” or more “formal”?

It’s interesting about the results. While 40.1% believe that politicians needs to be formal and that being “folksy” isn’t professional, 31.9 % believe that being [...]
