Jimmy Fallon found probably the most unique way yet to talk about the biggest story of the week: Sarah Palin‘s book.

Last night on Late Night, “Going Rogue” literally went rogue.

The Audacity of Going Rouge
(Not A Typo) (Update)

How do you get a book of grave, intellectual critiques of Sarah Palin, printed by a recently-launched independent publisher, to get national press attention and a panel discussion on Entertainment Tonight‘s “The Insider?” Easy: call it Going Rouge and make the cover as much of a one-off swap as the title.

Chyron of the Day: Sean Hannity Goes “Rouge”

video

Fox News, 9:04pmET:

Sometimes a chyron misspelling is particularly glaring because it accidentally makes a separate point. And rarely the misspelling serves to reinforce the exact opposite point. Thus was the case last night on Sean Hannity’s 9pmET FNC program. But besides the misspelling, there was also a serious discussion about the viability of Sarah Palin as GOP contender.

Last Year’s Sarah Palin Newsweek Cover Controversy? Not Sexy Enough!

video

Sarah Palin is currently involved in a heated back-and-forth with Newsweek magazine (while Runner’s World ducks for cover) over their use of a sexy cover photo of her on their most recent issue. This whole thing sounded weirdly familiar to me. Newsweek magazine accused of sexist cover photo, headline calling her a problem? Sure enough, it looks like this is an annual event for Newsweek. There are a few key differences, though.

Back in October of 2008, Newsweek took fire from Palin supporters for a cover photo that was NOT sexy enough.

And today he responds to criticisms aimed at him in Palin’s new memoir Going Rogue.

Palin: Newsweek Cover Sexist, Country Needs To Exercise More (Update)

While we wait for Sarah Palin to activate her still dormant Twitter feed, and keep our fingers crossed that Barbara Walters‘ interview with Palin, beginning today, is slightly more hard-hitting than Oprah’s was, we’ll have to rely on the old Palin standby: Facebook. Last night she addressed the Newsweek cover. (UPDATE: Jon Meacham responds.)

Keith Olbermann, Please Accept John Ziegler’s Palin Debate Challenge

plea

Today is the first day of the rest of Going Rogue’s life, and the beginning of what is sure to be a media avalanche of fact-checking, mock-checking, charges, and counter-charges. Not long ago, on these very pages, John Ziegler prescribed the antidote to this circus: a live debate with Countdown’s Keith Olbermann. Today, I say “Help us, Olby Wan KeithOlby, you’re our only hope!”

John Ziegler’s Review of Going Rogue

In an exclusive to Mediaite, the sometimes controversial documentary filmmaker John Ziegler reviews Sarah Palin‘s new book Going Rogue saying that he was “simply blown away by it on almost every level.” He also calls it “by far best book and greatest literary achievement by a political figure in [his] lifetime,” and leaves open Palin’s future in politics.

This is going to be good.

No more!
