Palin mocks the media with her bus trip

Andrew Malcolm at the Top of the Ticket (LA Times) captures the humor+revenge as Sarah Palin leaves the media in the exhaust on her non-campaign bus tour:

Sarah Palin, with her counterintuitive secret publicity bus tour, is demonstrating one of the most important rules of American politics:

There is nothing the U.S. media wants more than something it thinks it can't have. Hence the power of news leaks that manipulate the thrust of their initial presentation. Hard-to-get is a rigid rule of human behavior. Ask any teenage boy or girl.

And there are few things more sweet to Palin and her fervent supporters cheering their TV sets this week than the image of a hungry know-it-all "lamestream media" caravan of 15 or more vehicles traipsing along behind her red-white-and-blue bus enroute to they-know-not-where to do they-know-not-what.

  1. Well... if anything in this country deserves to be mocked... the Manstream Media would be it.
