Palin Returns to Fox News, After a Brief Split

Months after ending a sometimes tense working relationship, Sarah Palin and the Fox News Channel are back together.

Ms. Palin, the former Alaska governor and Republican vice-presidential candidate, has returned to Fox News as a paid contributor, Roger Ailes, the channel’s chairman, announced on Thursday afternoon. Her first appearance will come Monday on “Fox and Friends,” the channel’s conservative morning show.

The announcement came about five months after Ms. Palin’s contract with Fox News expired. That contract, signed barely a year after Ms. Palin’s unsuccessful 2008 bid for vice president, was said to be worth $1 million a year, making her the highest-paid pundit at the channel.

Her new contract is almost certainly less costly for Fox, since Ms. Palin does not have the star power she once did. (Fox’s news release on Thursday noted that in 2010, the year she joined Fox the first time, Time magazine named her one of the 100 most influential people in the world.)

Fox News: "We rehired Sarah Palin, but it was mostly a preemptive move so we didn't have to hire Michele Bachmann when her term runs out."

That is why she is back. She dropped her price.

8. Don't you pity any "English as a second language" viewers

trying to follow what she says?

10. LOL! If they're recent immigrants, they will get a very warped view of society.

For instance, every time you agree with someone, you need to wink and say, 'You betcha!' And every other sentence needs to include a reference to Lamestream Media.

It's the American way!
