How brave of Kate Snow. Not only making the trek to Flyover Country North, but even getting close to some yucky fish. That seemed to be Diane Sawyer's attitude in congratulating Snow for snagging an interview with Sarah Palin.
The soon-to-be-former Governor of Alaska invited Snow out for some salmon fishing. At one point the intrepid ABC reporter observes to Palin: "you have some fish guts on you."

Back in the studio, Sawyer saluted Snow's guts.
DIANE SAWYER: OK, Kate. Thanks so much for going up next to the fish and getting the interview.

And quite a lot of guts inside too.

"Thanks so much for going up next to the fish and getting the interview."
Isn't Chicago closer to NewYork than Alaska? I would think a little road trip there during the primaries and asking some simple questions may have prevented all this chaos we have now.

What bravery! What courage! There she was, less than a yard from fish guts!!!

Oh, the irony!!
July 7, 2009 - 08:38 ET by ekslibWhen Sarah made her announcement, pundits were saying she was trying to bury the story by releasing it on a Friday, the day before a holiday.
Now they are chasing her all over the Alaskan landscape to hear her say the same thing she said last Friday.
Think of all the fuel they are burning!!
Now the media is desparate.

July 7, 2009 - 09:26 ET by nwahsSo that was the interview? "You've got fish guts on you."
Is there anything else?
Why not Jeb Bush?
No thats not the whole interview

Why not Jeb Bush?

July 7, 2009 - 09:35 ET by Cool ArrowBreaking news!!!!
Sarah Palin, fishing in Bristol Bay, had some fish guts on her.
Shocking!!
Well the whole interview
July 7, 2009 - 09:42 ET by nwahsThe whole interview has more substance, but contains a gaff. Er a gaff and a gaffe.
There's no "Department of Law" at the White House. Read the whole interview and see what you think.
Why not Jeb Bush?
→ No Dept of Law
July 7, 2009 - 09:42 ET by Cool ArrowDon't bet on it.
I saw yesterday there are now 32 Czars.
There is now a "California Waterways Czar"
Last I'd heard it was 18.
Department of Law
July 7, 2009 - 09:47 ET by allanfThese little blunders are grist for the ant-Palin mill. Alaska has a Department of Law which is run by the State Attorney General and that Department deals with executive branch ethics.
There really is no adminstrative proceess I know of for filing "ethics" complaints against a President.

July 7, 2009 - 11:57 ET by well99Maybe there is one in the 57 states.I dont think they had one at Austwitz when the Messiah's Uncle freed the prisoners.
Another 'ethics' charge
July 7, 2009 - 12:24 ET by sic721What kind of fish guts were they? Salmon? Steelhead? Rainbow trout? Northern pike? We need to know which species Sarah was wearing the 'advertisement' for to file a complaint. /s

It's Palin's time off. How do you know that ABC agreed to the interview in this format because it was the only time Palin was available for the interview?
You take what you can get. Otherwise, don't do the interview.
It may be just that simple.
You wouldn't be an urban elitist, would you?
Nothing elitist about it. I
July 7, 2009 - 19:13 ET by balboaNothing elitist about it. I just think it's curiously convenient. I have no doubt that she planned it this way.

It wouldn't.

Yep...she's out there hard
July 7, 2009 - 16:58 ET by bigtimerYep...she's out there hard at work, pulling in salmon...all the while her hair, make-up and glasses all in place....slick as a whistle.
Give me a break, as a gal who has worked on fishing boats and in canneries when the boats come in, ready to off-load...you don't look that. ..no matter how pretty you are...let alone how the gear really looks after you've done just that when the job is done.
Trust me.
But wait...Sarah hates and is going to sue the msm.
Oh wait...silly me...she is smarter than all, nobody will notice this is all a photo-op and she's using the msm to help her plans...or so she thinks.
Brilliant I tell ya...brilliant.

July 7, 2009 - 09:42 ET by CrashHook, line and stinker. Were I a member of the MSM I'd be embarrassed that blogs and talk shows are better at reporting the news. If reporters spent more time fishing, rather than dishing ... they'd have better ratings.
Thanks ABC, for letting us
July 7, 2009 - 10:36 ET by slickwillie2001Thanks ABC, for letting us know that there is no 'Department of the Law' in the White House. I don't think she meant it literally.
If this was a M'chell article they would be reporting the designer of the coveralls and sunglasses, which would promptly sell out all over the country. Moonbats would descend on fish sellers looking for some similar guts to deck themselves with as a fashion accessory.
Just for fun they should have rocked the boat and got Snow wet.
Fish guts as a fashion statement
July 7, 2009 - 11:31 ET by BlondeTrust me....they work!
I used to take my pals out fishing....we'd have girls day out on my boat. Afterward, we'd stop at a great waterfront place for a dip in the pool and a nice cold drink.
The commotion about a boat full of women (why this is so I can't figure out....what, we can't drive a boat?) was at least doubled when we had fish guts on our t-shirts. It was a stampede of men...."What'd you catch?"
Oh how I'd love to fishing with the Palin's!
And since you brought up the getting wet thing.....I once slammed the bow of my boat over a huge wave going out the inlet and managed to nail my mother-in-law full-on with a big wave over the bow (during the winter too). Oh how THAT makes me smile to this day.
Thanks for the happy thoughts!
I hope he fails, too.

July 7, 2009 - 15:33 ET by katainkentfrom one of these jokers I would pick someplace that would put them off their game. (I would have handed her a fish and a fillet knife.) The time is burned anyway. Might as well have some fun with it.

July 7, 2009 - 16:57 ET by stratmanYes.
Palin seems to have learned to always keep interviews on her terms, preferably on her turf.
