Sarah’s A Runner
The Moderate Voice —
Andrew Sullivan takes a break from the Vanity Fair fuss to point to Sarah “I’m a runner” Palin in Runner’s World.
The photo above is from photographer Brian Adams’ slide show. Sullivan quotes a Dish reader:
It’s not proper to display the flag to have it draped over a chair. Just imagine the outrage on Fox News if there was a photo of Obama and an improper display of the Stars and Stripes!
Sullivan points to an ...
Not a Photoshop
Balloon Juice —
Wow:
When I saw it at Sullivan’s, my first thought was that it has to be a photoshop done by her enemies.
It isn’t. It is part of a photo shoot for Runner’s World. Has anyone seen Rich Lowry today?
Also, I eagerly await the multiple Red State diaries screaming about her mistreatment of the flag.

Sarah: always running
dustbury.com —
... Secret Service guys had to pull up beside me. My hands just got torn up and I was dripping blood. In the debate you could see a big fat ugly Band-Aid on my right hand. I have a nice war wound now as a reminder of that fall in the palm of my right hand. For much of the campaign, shaking hands was a little bit painful.
The Secret Service, incidentally, lived up to their name by never saying a word about it.
The shoes (since you’re going to ask): Asics. More photos here. ...
Palin's Puzzling Move Once Again Roils 2012 Field
Politics Daily —
Filed under: Sarah Palin, 2012 President, Woman UpIt's like a game of Republican dominoes, falling one by one: Nevada Sen. John Ensign, bumped out of the spotlight by South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford, who now must be eternally grateful to Sarah Palin. All three had been looking at the 2012 presidential race. The men are non-starters after extramarital affairs; Palin's status is a bit murkier. I've seen some analysis that her resignation as Alaska governor later this month will give her the time and opportunity to build a team for 2012. I've seen more convincing analysis that her decision is another ...
Chris Weigant: Sarah Palin, Preparing To Run
Politics on HuffingtonPost.com —
... out as a literal one. Because I finally got around to reading Palin's most recent interview, in Runner's World magazine. And the article is accompanied by seven photos, not (as one may have expected) of Sarah Palin actually running, but instead of Sarah preparing to run. We'll get into double meanings later, but first, let's examine these preparing-to-run photos.
Most of the photos are just of Palin stretching or doing yoga, in running clothes. One prominently features her son Trig. But it's the last one that really gave me pause. ...
Palin: Train wreck or gravy train?
GOP 12 —
[image] The train-wreck that's supposed to be Sarah Palin's political career might be doing some shape-shifting. Of course -- some people say you stop to watch the wreck; others that you hop aboard the wagon. Whichever the case, " this book has taken off like a rocket ". AllahPundit responds. .... if it goes on to become a mega-seller, it’s a game-changer insofar as it’ll establish her unquestionably as the most prominent Republican in America, which leaves Huck and Mitt in an awkward spot before the primaries... Right now, she's unquestionably the most prominent Republican in America, if by prominence you mean prominence. ...

... she pulled on

from her acting like she liked me for four or five plus years, and then
going on saying that stuff, is just ridiculous how fake they are...it's
just ridiculous." Yep, the Palin drama is ridiculous. As is the political party that seems to be taking it seriously. (Photos: Levi, Bristol and Trig at the GOP Convention last year, and Sarah Palin, posing with son Trig for Runner's World.)

No More Mister Nice Blog — SAVE SARAH PALIN FROM HER OWN DECISIONS! AS A FEMINIST ACT! I would have thought it was sexist to tell a grown woman -- middle-aged at that -- that she needs to be protected from the consequences of decisions she freely made. Apparently not. Apparently it's sexist not to want to save Sarah Palin from herself. Last summer, Sarah Palin -- of her own free will -- made the decision to do an interview with Runner's World, which was accompanied by a series of photos for which Palin posed -- also of her own free will. One of the photos, arguably, was low-level cheesecake. Now that photo ...
The truth hurts: Newsweek's Palin cover
Majikthise —
Newsweek used this photograph of Sarah Palin as a cover shot. The headline reads, "How do you solve a problem like Sarah? She's bad news for the GOP and everyone else." It's a damned good question, and I couldn't think of a better image to make the point. Palin posed for this picture as part of a photo essay captioned Governor Palin, The Runner, which ran in the August issue of Runner's World. When I first saw that photo spread, I was appalled that a sitting governor would pose for a shot like this, as part of a larger essay that includes this stretching shot that puts the visual center of gravity squarely ...

Runner’s World: Newsweek Ripped Off Our Photo
Lakeshore Laments —
... ) The controversy at the moment over the Newsweek cover for the moment appears to be whether or not it is sexist (In its current context it is, or at the least it knocks Newsweek down a few pegs on the "Real 'News' Magazine Worth Reading" category.) and demeaning to Sarah Palin. However, Runner's World -- which did the original photo shoot last year with Palin for an article on her fitness regiment -- is not pleased with Newsweek for taking the photo and using it without their permission . “On the cover of this week’s issue of Newsweek is a photo that was shot for the August ...

... . (Not quite eye-gougingly horrific, but up there.) Yes, it's pretty atrocious of Newsweek to have done that. But I'll give the cover the credit for being worse, on two fronts. First up, there's the douchebaggery of Newsweek in using the photo. Runner's World, who first published the photos of Palin in her running attire, had this to say : EDITOR'S NOTE: On the cover of this week's issue of Newsweek is a photo that was shot for the August 2009 issue of Runner's World, in which Sarah Palin was featured on the monthly "I'm a Runner" back page. Runner's World did not provide ...
Politically Blonde

« Know Your Limitations Politically Blonde [image] Lefties whack Newsweek for sexism. MediaMatters . Hullabaloo . It’s feminist bites lefty rag, a pretty rare and newsworthy occurrence for a crowd that usually slams as they do, not as they say. Palin didn’t like it, either, went after it on Facebook . Good. Point out their raging hypocrisy. But as a professional tabloid newspaperman, I’m not going to squawk. Mocking pols is not only a fine American journalistic tradition, it’s an important part of our nation’s political discourse. My own newspaper put an Elmer Fudd hat on Mitt Romney when he claimed to be ...

The spokeswoman declined to say whether Runner's World intends to respond to Adams's breach of contract with legal action. But while Newsweek 's use of the photo violated the embargo, it's not clear to what extent Adams is at fault.
