In today’s Cheers and Jeers at Daily Kos, Palin Derangement Syndrome takes front and center stage. While blogger Bill is watching TV, a top liberal intellectual pursuit, whenever he hears “Palin,” he gets mad and changes the channel.
“Welcome to the Today Show. This morning: Sarah Palin’s new book…”

Will Palin Derangement Syndrome be covered under our new government-run health care system?
Wow. Did you miss the point or what.
The point was the media feeding frenzy over Palin’s book—the utter oversaturation of the airwaves. Y’know…like Obama oversaturation and Glenn Beck oversaturation and Kate and Jon saturation and etc. etc.
I don’t get mad in the slightest when I hear “Palin.” I do get rather annoyed, though, when it’s all Palin, all the time.
She lost big in ’08 and failed to complete even a single term as governor. Polls show the American people don’t care much for her. The attention she’s getting—good and bad—is just insane. I don’t deny her faithful following on the far right…that’s perfectly fine. Jeez.
I was bashing the media, not Palin.
But thanks for reading my little blog post. I’m humbled.

I suppose the media’s job is to report whatever gets reaction. It seems as if you have reacted.
For the record, I haven’t watched any Sarah Palin interviews. I’m totally disinterested. Perhaps if the media received absolutely no reactions, they’d move back to John and Kate. Only one more episode in that, you know.
