Sarah Palin O’Reilly Factor Video 1-12-10

Here is the Sarah Palin O’Reilly Factor video from Jan. 12, 2010. Making her debut as a Fox news contributor, the former Alaska governor and 2008 Republican VP candidate appeared on Bill O’Reilly’s program.

Palin addressed a range of political topics, including the depictions of her conduct during the 2008 campaign arising from the recently published book Game Change, by journalists John Heilemann and Mark Halperin as well as the 60 Minutes interview with McCain campaign strategist Steve Schmidt. She addressed such allegations that she did not know why there was a North Korea and a South Korea, and that she was ill prepared for the Vice Presidential debate with Joe Biden.

She said of the 60 Minutes interview that she had been warned not to watch it. She said “It’s a bunch of B.S. from Schmidt and from some of those” and that Schmidt was repeating “gossipy anonymous accusations.”

In addition to her debut on Fox, the former Governor and her daughter, Bristol Palin, appear on the cover of In Touch Weekly and are featured in an interview and photo shoot. Details and pictures here: Exclusive: Sarah Palin and Bristol Talk ‘Surreal’ Year
