Observations on Oprah's refusal to interview Palin

It's interesting how some liberal news hosts say that Sarah Palin is afraid to do interviews with them, and now it seems like Oprah is afraid to interview her!  I wonder why.  Maybe it is because The Oprah Winfrey Show is broadcasted before a live audience, and the liberal news stations can't "edit" the interview to their liking!  They won't be able to distort what Sarah says, and who she is, by using their "cut-and-paste" technique.


Here is what I would say to Oprah:

"You have built your television show, and entire media empire on the premise that you support honoring the accomplishments of all women, and that you believe in fairness and impartiality.

It has now come to light that you will not interview Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin. You claim that you do not want your show to be used "as a platform for any of the candidates." Yet you invited Barack Obama to appear on your show -- then endorsed him for President.

I am sorry to learn that you are not the advocate for all women that you claim to be. Your refusal to interview Palin can mean only one thing – you put Obama's interests ahead of the interests of your viewers.

I urge you to reconsider your decision."
