Several reporters were caught on tape mocking Sarah Palin after she gave a speech in California last week.
From the Politico
A group of reporters covering a Sarah Palin speech in California last week were caught on a hot microphone making fun of the former governor while covering the event.
“Oh my God, I feel like I just got off a roller coaster, going round and round, and up and down,” one journalist is heard saying of Palin’s remarks. “S—- flying out everywhere.”
Palin’s speech was at California State University, Stanislaus, in Turlock. The comments were caught by a local Fox affiliate, and in a statement the station says the reporters were warned several times that a microphone was picking up their conversation.
“The comments overheard were made by reporters assembled from other newspaper and television outlets, and at no time was the voice of our photographer or our reporter heard on the stream,” the statement from FOX40 on Monday read.
“It’s very likely that those reporters and photographers were unaware, or simply forgot, that there was one television station with an open microphone broadcasting to the world.”
The station did not identify the reporters it says were caught on microphone.
A second reporter is heard on the recording comparing Palin’s speech to a bad college paper.
“When you’ve got to write a report as a college student and you just try to jam as many quotes in as possible…That’s what I got,” the male reporter said.
A third journalist later says, “She didn’t finish a statement,” to which another chimes in “Did she make a statement? Because I didn’t catch that either.”
The liberal media is compelled to cover Palin because she draws large crowds wherever she goes but this caught in tape episode reveals the disdain they have for her and why she will likely never get a fair shake from them.

3 Comments for Live Mic Catches Reporters Trashing Palin
Let them go listen to the droaning on and on of our “dear leader”.
The “lame stream media’s” poor representation of “journalism” is evidenced by their etremely low ratings. LOL. The proof is always in the pudding ( for those who have never experienced the wonders of pudding–this expression has the idea behind it of “it’s bloody obvious” kinda thing. )
If the LSM was even half-way awakened from their American tax $$ sponsored, deficient gov’t, propogandized elementary education, they might actually be fullfilling their duty as the “watchdogs” of this great nation, we have had the awesome constitutional privelage to live in.
May all patriots stand up and sing this Independence day, “God Bless America”! Let the thread of freedom, that spooled itself on our eastern shores, thread it’s way forever through the lives of our children and Beyond! SALUTE! GO SARAH PALIN 2012!!
The more the lefties keep trashing Palin the stronger she becomes. That must really infuriate the little bigots.
Just think how strong she’ll be by 2012? The left will be sounding like Marvin the Martian by then!
