Well, bye bye Palin. Her contract is not being renewed. Is she not renewing because she is sick of FOX or the other way around?
Maybe she will try another reality show and give Honey Boo Boo a run for the money.

She's last decades news.
I think shallow and vapid are words that describe her the best.

could we all wake up and have a Bobby Ewing moment?
could it all have been just a [bad] dream?

good. shitty footnote in history.

Dumb as a rock but nice cans.

Of course she tried to stab them in the back on the way out.
Where are her loyal supporters now?

She's not renewing, because they offered her less money.
Palin was a hot property when Roger Ailes landed her in 2009, fresh off her colorful run for vice president, and paid her an annual salary of $1 million. Fox even built Palin a studio at her Wasilla home.
But relations cooled between the two sides, and Palin was appearing on Fox less often—complaining on Facebook one night during the Republican convention that the network had canceled her appearances.
The new contract offered by Fox, say people familiar with the situation, would have provided only a fraction of the million-dollar-a-year salary. It was then, they say, that Palin turned it down and both sides agreed to call it quits.
A friendly announcement was planned for Friday, but a source close to Palin leaked the news in the afternoon to Real Clear Politics, saying the former Alaska governor “decided not to renew the arrangement” and “remains focused on broadening her message of common-sense conservatism.”

They are offering less money because she wasn't worth what she made originally.

And why would they offer her less money?

politically, she's a relic. She had some value when the tea party was a big deal.
Today, they're not. Today, the top GOP leaders are going out of their way to swing moderate. Rand paul, Rubio... they're all finding middle ground suddenly. Jindal too. They're doing it all at once, because their core values don't resonate with 51% of Americans, unfortunately.
Palin doesn't have monster intelligence. They didn't even let her appear/speak/pundit at the RNC... I mean, they had some seriously average guests, yet didn't give the rock star of the 2008 election even stand there with a smile and wave?
She'll have another show on TLC or one of those networks. She'll always be a favorite to some people, always have her niche. This isn't a "win" for her... A win woudl be to stick around as THE voice of the far-right conservative movement for all those debates, etc. however I think there are much brighter people who can articulate those positions and their values WAY better than she could. She shouts slogans. her analysis is just too weak to warrant staying power.

I didn't realize she was paid a million a year to appear on Fox. :o Sounds like her head is getting a little swole. :) I'm sure whatever they offered to pay her was far more than she could have received had she never been the VP nominee.

Scarborough on Palin: Fox News chief decided ‘she’s not worth the trouble’
MSNBC host Joe Scarborough said on Monday that the split between ex-vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin and Fox News marked a turning point in GOP philosophy — particularly from the man he called the Republican party’s “de facto leader,” Fox News Channel chair Roger Ailes.
“He’s run the party, he’s run the conservative movement,” Scarborough said of Ailes. “And when Roger Ailes decides she’s not worth the trouble, then that means conservatism’s moving in a new direction.”
