ANCHORAGE, Alaska – Sarah Palin is taking her conservative message to Fox News. An attorney for the former Alaska governor and Republican vice presidential candidate says Palin will provide some type of commentary for the cable network.Attorney Thomas Van Flein declined to elaborate on the deal.
Palin is hugely popular with conservatives and has more than 1 million Facebook followers.
The Anchorage Daily News adds content:
Palin is expected to provide political commentary and analysis for a number of Fox properties, including Fox News Channel, Fox Business Network, FoxNews.com and special event political programming for Fox Broadcasting. That means she'll be on a number of shows, the network said.

She also will host periodic episodes of the cable news channel's "Real American Stories," a new series the network describes as "exploring inspirational real-life tales of overcoming adversity throughout the American landscape." The series is expected to debut this year. It will be produced from New York, meaning Palin will be spending much of her time on the East Coast.
Conservative Alaskans continue to be amused by watching the left-stream media squirm & contort themselves, as Gov. Palin insists on taking unexpected directions.
Have the progressives ruined her reputation up here? Yes, to be blunt, there is a segment of the population which has completely forgotten why they voted for her, and why she was so popular. They believed the lies, innuendo, and the whimperings of that ineffectual little wimp who nearly married her daughter. Traditional Alaskans still wish she was the governor, and would like to get their hands on the half-dozen progressives from Wasilla who formed the "Get Sarah" club, two years ago.
Will she run for another political office? I don't know, but suspect she's been too badly damaged by the relentless smear campaign. That being said, I have no direct connection to the Palins*.
*In the interest of full disclosure, I have met with Atty. Van Flein on an unrelated matter for my employer, and I know several people who know the Palins. I've never met the Palins themselves.

Is a good thing as the left has such a hang up on Palin they seem to forget to wipe themselves after they make a mess!!
As an original supporter of Palin, I don't believe she is right for beating Obama in 2012. She says the right things, generally, but in giving up her gubinatorial seat, she gave up any real power to challenge Obama and his socialist doctrines. I would have prefered her in the Gov. seat talking to the Alaskan House and calling for nullification of the healthcare bill, etc coming down... THAT is real leadership...
Her jockeying in the FoxNews team may be best for her finances, but don't do much in the way of taking or making any real stand on behalf of the people...
Sarah has a huge following in the lower 48 still. When she was in Coeur d'Alene for her book signing people waited outside in the cold the night before.They ended up having to turn folks away because she had to leave for her next signing gig...in Sandpoint (where her dad was a H.S. teacher years ago). There was not a bad thing to be said about her in the local news papers. I like her. We'll see what the future will bring.
