You Betcha: Glenn Beck’s Newest Publicist Is Sarah Palin

A lot of people are watching Glenn Beck on a regular basis on Fox News at 5pmET. But this week he’s hoping even more tune in as he promotes a “special” – which doesn’t sound so special, since it consists of every show this week.

And guess who he has helping him draw viewers to the program: his buddy, Sarah Palin.

Palin wrote a note on her Facebook page about Beck’s special this week, the lengthily-titled “The New Republic: America’s Future – Reasonable Questions For Unreasonable Times.”

FOX News’ Glenn Beck is doing an extraordinary job this week walking America behind the scenes of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue and outlining who is actually running the White House.

Monday night he asked us to invite one friend to watch; tonight I invite all my friends to watch.

Palin was Beck’s first guest on his Fox News program, and back when he was at HLN he conducted an interview with her before she was even announced as Sen. John McCain‘s VP pick.

Palin has been laying low (well, relatively) since she left the Governor’s office, sticking mainly to her Facebook page. But it hasn’t diminished her impact – so far 8,118 have “liked” her Beck note, and 1,759 people have commented. Will it help Beck’s ratings tonight – we’ll find out tomorrow.

Here’s the June 2008 interview:
