AP Dishes Palin

Politics • Views: 1,787

It won’t be officially released until Tuesday, but the Associated Press has an advance look at Sarah Palin’s “Going Rogue.” She complains that the McCain campaign deliberately kept her “bottled up,” and coached her to give non-answers. She portrays herself as a down-home simple kinda gal who resented being forced to wear glitzy clothes. A down-home simple gal with a penchant for going rogue.

And she takes a few shots at Katie Couric:

Palin, who received an advance of at least $1.25 million, saves her strongest words for run-ins with McCain staffers and her widely panned interview with CBS anchor Katie Couric.

She describes Couric as condescending, biased and “badgering.” She contends the anchor chose “gotcha” moments while leaving the candidate’s more substantive remarks on the cutting room floor. …

Palin takes another dig at Couric while asserting her expertise on energy matters. She writes that she was shocked Couric had asked her which newspapers and magazines she read; given what she called Couric’s lack of knowledge about energy issues, Palin wondered whether she should have asked the news anchor what she read.

I suspect Couric might have been able to come up with a better answer than, “All of them.”
