Former Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin will be at Legacy Books on Dallas Parkway in Plano today from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. She will be there to sign copies of her book, “Going Rogue.”
Here’s the catch. The event is sold out. Tickets are being scalped on Craigslist for $500 (plus the price of a book to get signed). Pictures with the rock star will cost extra. 1,000 people are expected.
And yes, I know that’s a picture of Tina Fey, not Palin.
Why the Tine Fey picture?
I support “Quitter” Palin and her decision to back out of being in the photo in this story about her. It is so typical of the ultra-left wing media to decide to run a picture of someone else when she backed out. The responsible thing would be to leave a large blank rectangle. Better yet, they should quit publishing altogether until “Quitter” requires their services to publicize her.
Actually, if I thought my post would send one single person to see her, I would never have posted it. However, the event was sold out. The pic of Tina Fey was put in as a joke, but of course, anyone who talks about the ultra-left wing press doesn’t get jokes. This is a blog. Not always serious. The pic was a joke.
Since she is charging to have pictures taken with her or get an autograph in a copy of her book, the press should charge her to publicize her event. The idea that a book signing is “sold out” is ridiculous.
And I proudly wear the label “ultra left wing” but this is a blog where we post opinions. In our news reporting in the newspaper, we take our jobs to report completely very seriously.
