Sarah Palin recommends news sources
UPDATE: Here it is. Pitiful.
Interesting (and the video at the link includes additional insights from Palin):
Tonight on the CBS Evening News, host Katie Couric asked Sarah Palin which sources she relies on for her news consumption. Three separate times, Couric tried to elicit a response from Palin about which specific newspapers she reads. Seemingly caught off guard, Palin could not name a single news source:
COURIC: And when it comes to establishing your world view, I was curious, what newspapers and magazines did you regularly read before you were tapped for this — to stay informed and to understand the world?
PALIN: I’ve read most of them again with a great appreciation for the press, for the media —
COURIC: But what ones specifically? I’m curious.
PALIN: Um, all of them, any of them that have been in front of me over all these years.
COURIC: Can you name any of them?
PALIN: I have a vast variety of sources where we get our news.
Notably, Couric’s question comes from the earlier interview when Couric asked Palin about Palin only getting a passport recently and Palin responding that she had developed an understanding of the broader world through reading.
