Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin said she is "thrilled" to become a contributor at Fox News, in a press release announcing the deal.
"I am thrilled to be joining the great talent and management team at FOX News. It's wonderful to be part of a place that so values fair and balanced news," Palin said in the release.
Bill Shine, the executive vice president of programming for Fox News, said, "Governor Palin has captivated everyone on both sides of the political spectrum and we are excited to add her dynamic voice to the FOX News lineup."
The release adds that Palin will "provide political commentary and analysis" for Fox News, Fox Business, FoxNews.com and special event programming.
She will also host a show called "Real American Stories," which Fox describes as "a series exploring inspirational real-life tales of overcoming adversity throughout the American landscape that will debut in 2010."

I didn't think it possible, but FOX Noise actually found a way to lower both its IQ and its credibility by nearly 98% in one fell swoop. Well done!

"It's wonderful to be part of a place that so values fair and balanced news."
"So values," as in, "values not at all."
So putting Palin's statement through the Palinfish translator, we get:
"It's wonderful to be part of a place that will let me say any false and batshit crazy thing I want without ever fact-checking or questioning me."

Sharah is thrilled, and so are her millions of followers, fans, & supporters. Watching Sarah, listening to her voice... is thrilling, titillating, tantalizing, and ultimately satisfying. She is a cultural, social & political icon. What a great day for broadcast journalism!
