LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) – Sarah Palin is close to a deal for her travelogue reality show.
Sources say Discovery Communications has edged out rival A&E Networks in the bidding for the project, "Sarah Palin's Alaska." An agreement could be announced in the next few days.
It's still undecided which network in the Discovery suite would air "Alaska," which is being produced by Mark Burnett Productions.
Although travelogues are on-brand for the Discovery flagship, having Palin as a centerpiece also makes the show a fit for mom-friendly TLC. Clearly nature docs are still viable for the company -- Discovery's latest effort in the genre, the miniseries "Life," just debuted to 11.8 million viewers on Sunday night.
In her numerous TV appearances, Palin has proven she can draw an audience. Yet her show won't come cheap. The former Alaska governor's asking price was $1.2 million per episode. A network paying anywhere close to that figure would make "Alaska" one of the most expensive nature series ever produced.
The high-definition program will be shot in a style similar to "Life" and "Planet Earth" and will feature the 2008 Republican vice presidential candidate acting as a guide to the Alaskan outdoors. When it was commissioned by the BBC at a cost of $25 million, the 11-part "Planet Earth" was considered the most expensive documentary the network had ever made. Discovery Communications had no comment.

Ahhhhhhhh good. Another "let's make fun of Palin ha ha" thread. At least it provides a break from the healthcare fiasco.
While you drones are laughing yourselves silly, you might consider this: you're being played just like the simpletons that you believe the pro-Palin people are.
So as you buy into the "Palin says that" and "Grayson says this" sideshow bullshit and criticize Fox News for providing fluff, just try not to appear so intellectual and superior.
Because you're not.

Million dollar book deals, $100,000 speaking engagements, Millions in revenue for reality shows, Rock Star status...why the hell would someone like that want to be president, extra security maybe?

Fairly or unfairly - Sarah Palin is damaged goods and will never be president.
So why should anyone fault her for cashing in on fame? Whatever happens, she's set for life.
And the fact she drives liberals and her set of palin-drones crazy is . . . well . . . icing on the cake.

I don't fault her a damn thing, but it doesn't go down so well with some people who are forced to struggle just to survive, she could NEVER relate to their suffering in any shape or form.
Besides, she showed her true colors when she decided to continue supporting mcstain, that POS who co-founded the bill 'Campaign Finance Reform'....and he hasn't done a damn thing to clean up the Illegal Aliens in his own home state...my loyalty to that traitor for choosing me as his running mate would have been a 'Thank You' and then I would have moved on, but she didnt!
#24. To: Get Outta Dodge! (#22)
She's earning her keep, not off my dime, so I admire her. I don't see her becoming President, but I think she'd do a great job as Energy Secretary, or Secretary of the Interior.

#25. To: Murron (#23)
While true...if you want a future role as a decision/king maker in either party, you repay whoever gave you the hand up on that national stage.
You know I dislike McCain I think.
But she had to return the favor. I doubt she's enjoying it. But its business, just like Lieberman carrying the water for Kerry in 04 despite what was going on behind the scenes.

I guess I just get too passionate about candidates and those who want to run this country. It's our lives they're all messing with, the future of our children, we, most of us, sacrifice almost everyay, whether we eat or pay a bill, and we're forced to watch these cretens stuff their bank accounts at the expense of the blood, sweat and tears of those they swore to protect...
I'd love for anyone to show me where any of these leeches have earned the UN- GODLY ammounts of money and bonuses they stash away...and why are we still silent on the PERKS these theives demand.
Sorry for the rant, they just piss me off!

I don't fault her a damn thing, but it doesn't go down so well with some people who are forced to struggle just to survive, she could NEVER relate to their suffering in any shape or form.I don't mean to seem preachy here - but I've tried to never resent someone who's successful in the monetary sense. (Not saying you are being resentful)
I have several relatives who are resentful of the Palins, Limbaughs, O'Reillys etc. of the world just for that reason. It just eats them up, and it certainly has no effect on the targets of the resentment
One shouldn't expect successful people to necessarily "feel our pain". (Remember when we had a POTUS who "felt our pain")
I admit to one resentment, though. When people like Algore say "we should be more giving as a society", then it's revealed he gave - what? - $300 to charity one year?
Besides, she showed her true colors when she decided to continue supporting mcstain, that POS who co-founded the bill 'Campaign Finance Reform'....and he hasn't done a damn thing to clean up the Illegal Aliens in his own home state...my loyalty to that traitor for choosing me as his running mate would have been a 'Thank You' and then I would have moved on, but she didnt!I have no use for McClown, either. I didn't vote for him in the last election (I voted for Barr) If Palin had been at the TOP of the ticket, tho . . .
I wish Palin hadn't supported him in his Senate race, but I suppose I understand why she did.
Like I said, she's not going anywhere politically - so it doesn't matter

Going back over it, it did look like I resented her income, but I don't, I resent polititians who don't give a damn about destroying our country, but use their possitions to stuff their own nests...sorry...

They used to get kicks calling you and I (up until I quit supporting Shrubya over manditory psychological screening of school children) "BushBots". Well these "Progressives" seem to be 'bots themselves now:

Oh what a DUFFLE-HEAD that Barack Obama is !!! Duffle-Head (As used in a Felix the Cat cartoon) A wicked person of limited intelegence but with pretenses of intelectual grandeur. Their only successful endevors are usually the invention of self punishment machines.

Not that I blame you denying it all this time and pretending to be a Independent. Who wouldn't be ashamed of a thing like that?

True in many cases, Murron. but the fact remains Palin is earning her way, and not off our tax money.
I have a lot more respect for that than any of these political whores in the Congress today.
