“Sarah Palin’s Alaska” Received Taxpayer Dollars
This doesn’t strike me as a a very good example of small government philosophy in action:
The company that produced Sarah Palin’s Alaska, the TLC show starring the former vice presidential nominee, is set to receive $1.2 million in state subsidies, according to the Fairbanks Daily News-Miner.
The funding has led to criticism that then-Gov. Palin may have approved of tax credits for programs filmed in Alaska as a way of boosting her profile in the future.
Whether that’s the case or not, one wonders what exactly is fiscally conservative about taking taxpayer dollars for a reality show after having quit the job they elected you to.

But Doug, she had to take tax money to finance her vanity project TV show because those ethics investigations were so mean. Don’t you know anything?
Doug…you continue to.question Sarah Palin. It’s pretty clear to everyone that you are an Islamic socialist help bent on weakening America…
Hell bent
Are these “Ratings to Nowhere”?
Thanks for the nod Doug.
@JD, classic!
“is set to receive $1.2 million in state subsidies” — I thought the show was canceled.
What's this? New formatting stuff? Let's see:

Well, the link worked, but the left/right justified and centered did not.
This pisses me off, I live in alaska and I didn't even watch that piece of shit show.
Let's be fair here. The entire state of Alaska is a government funded enterprise that enjoys dozens of "perks" no other state receives.
They freaking pay their citizens to live there for christs sake.
Those rugged individualists up north are the biggest welfare queens in America.
