The New York Times is reporting that Sarah Palin has signed a contract to work with FOX News. Perfect.
The network confirmed that Ms. Palin will appear on the network’s programming on a regular basis as part of a multi-year deal. Financial terms were not disclosed. Ms. Palin will not have her own regular program, one person familiar with the deal said, though she will host an occasional series that will run on the network from time to time.
That makes sense. I mean, it is a news network, so obviously they are going to hire intelligent, well-informed people, with a history of being able to clearly express thoughts and ideas*. Ugh. You know what? I already recognize that the world is a place of darkness and misery where the cruel are rewarded, stupidity is a virtue, and there is no God. DUH. So, you guys are free to talk about this latest instance of a proudly ignorant human nightmare being financially rewarded for their hateful, dishonest, and morally bankrupt fame-seeking, OR you can post pictures of puppies in the comments in an effort to carve out some kind of tiny corner in this world where things are DECENT and GOOD and not terrifying reminders that we do not belong. The choice is yours!

Didn’t you just post about her? She was screaming over death metal or something…
Anyone watch Charlie Brooker’s Newswipe? It’s UK-oriented but he’s so good, in a less restricted arena than Jon Stewart is given, at just showing what an utter fucking mockery the news is. I discovered it over the break.
Yeah, I discovered him via that special that he did about his love for The Wire. He is awesome.
You just inspired me to sign up here as Charlie Brooker is the best! I was sad because I missed his review of the year because I was away, but luckily some kind individual saved Christmas and stuck it on youtube – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dPv7rmlwk2A.
I’m upvoting you for being called Barry Shitpeas. This is the only reason.
Also, to potential Charlie Brooker fans, the new series of Newswipe starts on BBC4 (and, of course, the Net-terwebs) a week today. Good times, Monsters!
both?
Damn it. Enhance?
ENHANCEgum
Boo for ruining the continuity between our identically-timed double-post and taking the “enhance” joke along with it.
double woof.
Does the internet even have cute pictures of puppies? I thought the internet was all snarkiness, kittens and porn (not in that order).
Fox News for President 2012.
I consider this “multi-year” deal good news. It means we’ll be spared of talking about her as a viable presidential candidate. The mere thought makes me barf a little.
I’m assuming the deal is actually going to be a big part of her campaign. It’s cheap, easy exposure, and the Palin camp will be able to control the message to their liking. She’ll have a free venue to criticize Obama and repeat the stump, and Fox won’t have to face scrutiny for giving one candidate everything they need because “hey, she was on contract before she announced she was running, so nothing we can do about it”.
I mean, that’s what this is, right?
WHOSAGOODGIRL???
Quit doggin’ on her, yo.
Multi-year deal, Fox? Dumb move, Palin don’t do multi-year. You should have contacted her old employer first.
Not exactly puppies, but does anyone remember the age of Zoombinis? I find those were simpler times.

Let’s try that again:
OH MY GOD! I’M GOING TO GO OUT AND BUY* THIS GAME RIGHT NOW! THANK YOU FOR REMINDING ME WHAT IT IS!

Look at those faces in the Rocks! What is that?
Also, if I catch my mom watching this, I will be sad.
OH MY GOD ZOOMBINIS. OH MY GOD MY CHILDHOOD.
look! look it’s my icon! somebody on here once asked if it was “guess who blueberries” so i am glad somebody else knows what i mean when i say MAKE ME A PIZZA
Ugh.
You know you love her.
All Of ‘Em, Any Of ‘Em: The News with Sarah Palin
I wonder if Joe O’Biden will visit the show?
http://themoderatevoice.com/58708/she-called-him-obiden-yet-more-from-the-annals-of-the-ridiculousness-of-sarah-palin/
They’re just trying to shore up their ‘also ran’ block of programming. It’ll be Huckabee @ 8pm, Sarah Palin’s ‘Real America’ at 9pm, followed by ‘Doling out the truth’ at 10 and then ‘Getting the Red Out’ with the reanimated corpse of Thomas Dewey at 11.
I might actually watch a show hosted by Dan Quayle.

They could call it Potatoe/Potato: How Big Spelling is ruining America.
Ugh. I have no desire to talk about Sarah Palin (ever again in my life), so here is my contribution to the discussion:
Whoa. Missing comment? Bamboo puppy is stealthier than I thought.
Can we just fucking call Fox News the Tea Party Express Network Brought To You By David Koch and Rupert Murdoch already?
What a mutt.
This could be great. Does the constituition say you can’t run for office while employed by Fox News?
*The Constitution. I feel dumb.
No, you were right the first time. Sara P’s America is governed according to the constituition — that’s whatever your intuition tells you is probably the law.
I think I did this slightly wrongly.
komondors are fucking trainwrecks of cute.
This is my feel-good contribution:
Why is the older brother from “Mr. Belvedere” wrapped in a flag?
I thought it was Gabe for about six seconds.
I think we can all agree that this picture is at least one of our favorite people.
my first thought about this pic: “wow, ira glass is looking great!”
true story
“No, you da dog!”
Uggggh, self-medicating with corgi pictures currently.
I think the swiftness with which this thread is growing is proportional to the despair over the non-puppy reason this thread exists, which we won’t talk about, because this thread is about puppies.
You lucky bastard.
OMG my heart just sploded.
Where’s our mascot?
If we get enough puppies together, we can have a FOX (News) Hunt!
I can only hope her career is as hallowed and respected as Jesse “The Body” Ventura, and his foray into serious and respected journalism*.
*MUAHAHAHAHA AHAHAHA AHAHAHA I can’t even type that without laughing and having pop come out my nose.
What about a cat with a beard eating a cupcake?
HI LINUS!!!!
OMG 1000 UP VOTES PLEASE.
god, I actually used to be terrified when those rock faces blew your Zoombinis off the bridge (and that challenge when you have to get them up trees). I also remember playing this game in French? (side-affect of living on the border of Quebec?)
WHY DO I DO THIS TO MYSELF. One thousand down votes please for #zoombinifail (this was a reply to mrpiddles, obvs)
Here is a video of a dachshund puppy looking at itself in the mirror: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I7EpaDsmipg
Am I doing it right?
Close enough.
Baby, with an avatar of Shaq holding a panda, you can’t do wrong.
Shut this thread down, you win.
Topher Grace is really the royal flush of Videogum comment threads, isn’t he?
This puppy is in a jar! Haha, what?
Holy crap, Lots of Love for this one! The “TA-DAAAAH!” arms are killing me.
The opposite of Sarah Palin still being in/on the news is Samoyed pup-pups growing in planter pots.
Oh, no – here come the death panels!
This thread needs more baby sloth.
Correction: EVERYTHING needs more baby sloth.
I choose puppies, because puppies don’t make me want to start a riot. And yet I still want to express my outrage somehow, so Hitler puppy it is!
Watch out for this handsome guy, ladies! He is notorious for burying his face in girls? crotches. (He did not get that from me.) He also loves longs walks anywhere, anytime, right now? walk? who said walk? He?s a very good boy.
Isn’t Sarah Palin working for Fox a good thing, though? Won’t this impede her future in politics? Oh wait, I forgot she’s a quitter.
Ghostwritten journalism should be interesting.
This thread is about dogs using ATMs right?
I was waiting for someone to post this …and then i realized no one did because it?s not funny.
Great, my first post and I get it wrong. Please accept this picture of one of my puppies as an apology:
and this is the actual charlie brooker link – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dPv7rmlwk2A
Awwwwwe.
You can Carrie her in a handbag.
I found this on the side of the information superhighway…
This is Jonesy.
oh my god i loved Zoombinis!!!
