Sarah Palin’s Real American Stories special premiering tomorrow night is continuing to draw controversy today (also, we got a sneak peek of the show).

First it was LL Cool J, and now representatives for Toby Keith are speaking out about their surprise regarding the country star’s inclusion in the show.

According to HitFix:

Keith, who says he’s a registered Democrat, was not told about the usage of a past interview for Palin’s program. “We were never contacted by Fox,” his rep tells Hitfix.”I have no idea what interview it’s taken from.They’re promoting this like it’s a brand new interview. He never sat down with Sarah Palin."

Well we knew he wasn’t interviewed by Palin, but he is a significant part of the special – and more so than LL Cool J (and Jack Welch). His story is narrated by Palin.

But Fox tells us they did contact several members of Keith’s team to make them aware that he would be part of the program, including Elaine Schock, his publicist, who spoke with a Fox News producer, and the USO, where his manager is on the board. An insider tells us Welch wasn’t contacted either – and as far as we know, is happy with his part in the show.

The responses:

You’re assuming there aren’t liberals at Fox who wish to undermine Palin and conservatives. They couldn’t possibly be this stupid

This is one of the weirdest stories I have ever read. You are right, how could the network not have this all straightened out before hand? Also, I am not sure this is the direction Sarah Palin should be going in. Celebrity stories are ok for MTV or the Lifetime channel, but an interview with Toby Keith or worse L.L.Cool J does not give her any credibility as a serious contender for political office. Skip the interviews, Sarah, and find another niche to grow with.

4. Freepers can't believe we think CNN is conservative, either

Both sides have a tendency to blame the corporate-whorishness of the mainstream media on the other side's ideology.

3. "Liberals at Fox". I can't compute that.

It's like "Jews in the Nazi party" or "Chickens on the Board of KFC"

5. This keeps getting funnier all the time.

These assholes think anyone to the left of Joe McCarthy is a flaming soshlist librul. LMAO here. :rofl:

6. Ah, I love the smell of disenchantment in the morning.

7. Liberals at Fox News?

That's almost as contradictory as the term intelligent Republican or compassionate conservative.

[blondeatlast]

8. Heh--I predicted in another thread they'd blame it on us librulz. nt

9. It's a catch-all.

One of the many differences between DU and Free Republic is this:

On DU, if we point the finger at conservatives, we do it with documentation, and LINKS, and of we DON'T, the Link Police come crawling out of the woodwork and demand a LINK???

:rofl:

On Free Republic, when someone points a finger at liberals, they all high-five each other and pop open another Budweiser.

It's THAT SIMPLE.
