Palin to Hawk Book on Oprah

It'll be ex-governor's first visit to a non-news talk show

Share

(Newser) – In what could be a showdown for the ages, Sarah Palin will be bringing her trademark wink to the Oprah Winfrey Show on Nov. 16. Why would the conservative Palin sit down with a noted friend of Barack Obama’s? Because Nov. 16 is the day before her memoir, Going Rogue: An American Life, hits stands, and as the Chicago Sun-Times notes, “Oprah can move tanker-loads of books.”

I don't watch Oprah at all, but love her in movies, think she's a really talented actress, but hope she has an agenda the day of this show to throw Sarah Palin under the train!
