Fm: Staff

Energy TV would like an interview with the Governor and I thought this
Wednesday might work - the questions are below. What we need to do is simply book the Governor's time, provide the answers to the questions below, use the prompter and have her look to the side and answer the questions for use by the TV station, I just need help on the answers. It needs to be very
conversationally written. Needs to be on 3:3 Opm Governor's feed Wednesday -
could record according to Governor's schedule on Wednesday morning and would need answers by tomorrow. Possible?

You do realize news interviews of this sort are often produced in different locations and/or at different times with each of the participants recording their part of the Q&A session separately, right?


"use the prompter and have her look to the side and answer the questions for use by the TV station"

Did you not understand the "for use by the TV station" part?

Who said anything about that and why do we need a translation for what I wrote?

It's very clear.

I don't begrudge any public speaker, a teleprompter. Any of us who have had to make presentations or speeches throughout our career would have probably killed to have one.

BUT, you have to admit it was hilarious the day that one Obama teleprompter committed suicide right after he said he pulled our economy back from the brink. I'm talking about the one that jumped up and crashed to the ground. I don't care what anybody says, that's funny.

Then there's my favorite Obama political cartoon of the teleprompter at the foot of Obama's bed with zzzzzzzz on it.

From reading the E-mails, it appears what is happening here is Gov Palin is providing answers to questions without actually being present for the interview. This is a common practice for low-level pre-recorded news programs in which the questions and answers are edited together to give the impression both are present in the same place and time. In reality, the two participants may have never met.

Too funny, the left has tried to convince us Palin is as dumb as dumb can be. Yet she is used as the justification for Obama to use a tele-prompter to introduce a new cabinet member? Ummm, OK.
